When I first got into poetry slams, this was one of the 1st ones I watched and fell in love with an outspoken, and intellectual black man. He has some great words that are said here and my particular favorite is his break down on the word nigga! Open ya ears and shut my mouth and enjoy!
Kisses,

His words are so amazing! They are exactly how I feel about the use of "Nigger." It has become so popularized in the media and through music that the bloody and mutilated history of the word has been all but forgotten. White peple thnk it makes them cool, and black people think it makes them cooler!! Such foolery! Just like the B word, we can't expect a group of people not to do something if we don't lead the forefront on it. But sometimes, honestly, shit just sounds better with "Nigger" at the end of it!
