AAE Linguistic incompetence can be seen in classrooms, according to a 2021 study done by Emily Diehm. She stated, "In terms of school culture, teachers reported that they believed AAE to be more appropriate outside (rather than inside) the classroom, and only one-third of teachers received resources to enhance their knowledge of the cultural and linguistic features of AAE." This leaves a bridge between students and educators where a lack of self-expression is formed. It shows how the lack of knowledge of the cultural and linguistic features discourage a group of young speakers.
