Why White People Should NOT Use The N-Word, Even If Black People ‘Use It All The Time’ (Video)
November 23, 2017
Ta-Nehisi Coates with no malice or attempt at ‘points scored’… but this is a plain and simple explanation of why the n-word is “NOT” when it comes to White people speaking the word.
Context is key.

Ice Cube Confronts Bill Maher About His Use Of The “N” Word (Video)
June 12, 2017
That’s our word now, and you can’t have it back.
– Ice Cube
Certainly not ‘nothing’ and much ado should be made of it. Uber-Progressive, sh!t-talking talk show host who walks the talk Bill Maher opened the can and got himself into a jam loaded with n-word on a prior show. Bitter n-word use that left a BAD taste in everyone’s mouths, esp. Black people’s). Just used that word like he was one of the the n—
(Nope. Not gonna.)
But you know what? This is a teachable moment. And like an adult, Bill went to the cabinet and took his medicine. He had Michael Eric Dyson AND Ice Cube on the very next show. And they addressed that sh!t. Worked it out. No sugarcoating. Very frank, to the point, grown-folk talk about what Bill knows: It is NOT okay for him (as a White person) to invoke the n-word.
Watch and be impressed how the NWA (irony much?) articulated the matter and what was the matter to Maher and by extension to the millions of people who follow his lead (including many who might be getting a bit too comfortable using the n-word). Teachable moment…

A Discussion On The NFL’s “N-Word†Rule On ‘Larry King Now’ (Video)
June 10, 2014
Some say it’s a gray issue. Some say it’s black and white. In a way, they’re both right. To come at the discussion of use of the ‘N-word’ … in all its likely contexts (including on the field of battle in the National Football League) … Larry King sits down with panel of folks with varied points of view on the subject – Ryan Ford, Nipsey Hu$$le, Jimmie Lee Solomon and Chester Pitts.

Sports/Opinion: Charles Barkley Speaks On The Use Of The N-Word (Video)
November 18, 2013
Interesting. I agree with Charles Barkley (above) & I agree with Michael Wilbon (after the jump). What came up around recent discussion/debate regarding the NFL’s Richie Incognito’s alleged bullying of Miami Dolphin Jonathan Martin has jumped the fence… from the National Football League to commentary from one of the greats of the National Basketball Association… to [once again] a national conversation. Ernie had Shaq chiming in near the end of the clip, too. Watch.

ILL Doctrine: Jay Smooth Speaks On Why People Like Actress Gwyneth Paltrow Should Leave The ‘Nuh’ Word Alone (Video)
June 6, 2012
One of my favorite commentators on what’s going on in the world is definitely fellow hip hop radio show host Jay Smooth over at WBAI in New York City. He does a great job on political & social commentary on his blog ILLDoctrine.com but in the last year or two he had taken a break from his video blogs for quite a while . I was pleasantly surprised to see someone on twitter retweet his latest commentary on the Gwyneth Paltrow “N*ggas In Paris” twitter controversy. As always I agree with Jay Smooth 100% percent with what he says in the above video. R&B singer The-Dream, who was with the actress at the Kanye & Jay-Z’s show in Paris, claims he was responsible for the “N*ggas” tweet from actress Gwyneth Paltrow’s cellphone. Who knows really, but it does provide a lesson for everyone that Jay Smooth puts into words perfectly. Hopefully Jay Smooth doesn’t disappear on us too much with the video commentaries now that he’s back to doing them regularly.
