Why is speaking improper English labelled as “African American english”?.

Oh no, you're in the picture. It's a real dialect, just as valid as what they speak on the BBC, which I'm guessing is itself different from how you speak.

To be clear, I don't think you meant to be unkind here. I'm not trying to make you feel bad.
