Hi -
I'm preparing to do research on African American children who speak AAVE 
and assessment practices/dialectal differences awareness in 
speech/language pathologists. I'm hoping someone can direct me to good 
sources on best practices in language (disorders) assessment for African 
American children, especially those who speak AAVE. Also, any sources on 
linguistic bias in language assessment and/or incidence of language 
disorders in African American children.
Thanks much,
