The simple past tense shows that you are talking about something that has already happened. Unlike the past continuous tense, which is used to talk about past events that happened over a period of time, it is simply an action that is finished.

usually  ends with ed

example: I <u>finished</u> my homework

<u>finished</u> is done already

Language is a way of expressing yourself, as well as in Black English does exactly the same way, by expressing the kind of lives that black people had lived. The overcoming of slavery is being represented by the development of their languages and submission to the American people during that period of time.
Since their development under more extreme circumstances and different, it has enriched the culture of African American which made them recognize Black English as their language.
