In fact, it seems to me that the bowlerization of these great artists' literary work, as far as I'm concerned, highly objectionable.
Highly objectionable.
Well, here we need to focus on the word say.
Is it ever okay for anyone, black, white, pink, yellow, I don't care, red, orange, is it okay for anyone to use this word in a way that
to put down people, to terrorize people, to intimidate people?
Answer, no.
You know, and I'd say that black person.
I've seen, I mean, by the way, I've seen black people use this word to try to intimidate, put down other black people.
Bad.
So I'm against it with a black person, white person, doesn't matter.
On the other hand, imagine a white person who is giving a lecture on the history of American racism.
a lecture on the history of American racism.
And in giving that lecture, quotes the white racist politicians, who until fairly recently in American life, use the infamous N-word.
So imagine a white,
history professor giving a lecture about the history of American racism and says, in 1948, this is what so-and-so running for the presidency of the United States said, and then quotes a paragraph or two in which the infamous N-word says,
is featured.
Is that bad?
No, that's not bad.
No, that's not bad.
Sounds like a perfectly good lecture.
