If you can speak Ebonics and English, does that make you bilingual?

candidates to be bilingual, should I put it on my resume?

Only if you think whoever is hiring you has a really good sense of humor
 
Do it. For added hilarity, write the entire resume in Ebonics. This demostrates "applied knowledge" and will impress potential employers!

I CAN speak ebonics if I choose to. And almost anyone who went to public school in a city probably can if they try. You look like an idiot if you are serious about it, but you don't have to pretend to be a thug to do it.

No it is not another language (though some stupid polititions want it to be, even though doing so just creates even more negative stereotypes towards minorities), just a dialect, or bastardization if that makes you happy. It's not any better or worse than any of the other dielects (bastardizations) that we have already (I know for sure it can't be any worse than what Bush speaks :laugh: ), just different.
