Sociolinguist Bill Labov demonstrated empirically that language is socially stratified, that whether you identify with a place & it’s traditions affects how you speak, that African American English is a dialect worthy of study, that narratives of personal experience are structured, & so much more

Live your life so that when you die at 97, colleagues and friends in the field that you founded are full of gratefulness and thanks for what you accomplished and sadness that you’re gone. Thank you, Bill Labov.
