Putting the N-word in Perspective

In an undated performance on HBO's Def Poetry, Julian Curry puts the N-word in perspective.



Caution: The N-word is used often... and with emphasis!

plez sez: This is a powerful and in-your-face treatise on why no one should ever use the N-word again.

That was SICK! I have not felt such a powerful oration since the last time I listened to Saul Williams. This is the first I have heard of Julian Curry, but he is going on my list, I'm going to be keeping a look-out for more from Mr. Curry. This guy is a word smith !

Keith, Dave, and VC3,

Glad you guys dropped by and enjoyed that Def Poem! I've been playing it everyday since I posted it, just to reinforce WHY I shouldn't be using that word!

That was some serious stuff. More people need to hear what he had to say. Oh and thanks for the link!
