We've included some questions below to spark the conversation. Sound off and let us know what you think! Why is community activist, Tammie Lang Campbell who buried the n-word on national TV in 2007, redefining this racial slur in 2013?Should media use the sanitized n-word version while children are exposed to “ni**er” in educational materials? Why is Samuel Jackson fighting to be called the n-word in “Django Unchained”after his ancestors, like Buffalo Soldiers, refused to be called the n-word and fought and died for dignity?  In 1966, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said that he wondered if he had a new name after being called the n- word in Chicago so many times.  In 2013, how do you think our first  African-American president  and former Illinois senator feels when he is called the n-word?  Do you think Americans agree or disagree with Senator Robert Byrd’s 2001 “there are white ni**ers” statement on Fox News?  Visit EventBrite.com for pricing.
