Like people, language evolves

"Black language matters."

Civil Rights Memorial - Montgomery, Alabama 

Yes, it does. Kudos to the creatives at Grammarly for conceptualizing and posting the following acknowledgement of the original Civil Rights Era in American history: The Influence of the Civil Rights Movement on English

It was a time that introduced us to greatness in leadership we'd otherwise not have known, and left us with indelible phrases of the language of humans struggling to survive. Discrimination, segregation and plain violence mar any visage of a glowing American experience for all.

The bloodstained and tearful realities of the American experience for African slaves were a far cry from some of the most positive aspects of American history as it's been experienced by those who had easier passage. While basic themes weren't very different from similar aspects of world history, the grimy reality is that it's our most immediate history. It's recent. It's ours, as Americans. We're all close to it. It's painful.

As usual, we'll evolve. Our challenge is to evolve with all the freedoms possible. The breadth of knowledge we have along with supports of freedom that our very constitution encourages will guide us along the way. We have all the tools we need in language and communication. We must continue to use them wisely.

Part purpose of American history is to remember that we have a relatively new opportunity to freely express our experiences in many ways. It's to be accepted that the road we're on is the only road we could have taken. This is where we are. Our history- world history- has brought us to today's circumstances. Regional American history is a great part of the identities of so many people now. The need for America's promise never changes.

An accurate historical account is the most important gift of language we can offer each other. Good, bad and ugly- don't we owe it to ourselves to leave this life knowing that we've played our parts as true as could be done? Let's continue to utilize our experiences through language that can touch others.
