Why is this separate from AAVE?
editThe two terms refer to the same dialect of English, according to linguists (such as Dr. Lisa Green who wrote the linked page) working on the dialect itself. There is no need to separate them. (Ebonics is also the same, but the term has a distinctive history, which is why I neglect to mention that one but it, arguably, should be combined, too.)
