Sutcliffe,David.

British black english - Oxford Basil Blackwell. 1982 - 210 p.

Published at a time when Black people in Britain are daily becoming more aware of their need to assert their cultural independence, British Black English must be taken as a series of sketches drawn by an outsider that cannot be complete until they have elicited considerable feedback from the community. However, author hope that educationalists, linguists and lay readers will be able to derive from it some useful information on a complex, intriguing subject.
The book grew out of research carried out since 1973 into the language(s) of Black people in Britain - principally Carib bean- and British-born young people in Bedford.
