There is no direct correlation between speaking Ebonics and not having a father figure, although it is well documented that fatherless homes can have an impact on a child's linguistic development. Linguistic development is influenced by environmental factors such as the child’s interactions with parents or caregivers, the community or peer group with which the child interacts, geographical location, and exposure to different media.

As for the second part of your message, it's important to recognize that cultural expressions, including language and expressions of solidarity, can be received differently by different people depending on their personal experiences and cultural backgrounds. What may be seen as a gesture of solidarity by one group might be perceived as inappropriate or offensive by another.

If you are unsure about whether your expression of solidarity may be considered offensive or inappropriate, it may be helpful to seek feedback from individuals who are part of the community you are trying to support. In general, showing respect and empathy towards different cultural backgrounds, and taking the time to learn about and appreciate their traditions and history, is a good approach towards promoting inclusion and understanding.
