Modern day warrior and his name is Tom Sawyer! He floated down a river on a raft with a black guy!

I recall this happening in school.

Some people would skip over it. I’d just read it.

But I saw it as I’m not saying it, the character is.

I don't know why, but I laughed at "California English teacher is filmed saying n-word and urging students to repeat it.. As if she was like "Say nword! Say nword!! Say it!"

I am seriously glad I am not in school today. This shite is crazy. I remember in HS out history teacher showed us the show roots and I sat in back of class joking with the black dudes about it, who started joking about it first.. And everything was cool.

Is this newsworthy because a teacher is teaching?

I’m sure the black guys thought you were as cool as a wool turtle neck.

...and I am sure you can listen to the current Top 10 Rap/Hip-Hop singles and not hear a single utterance.

Saying it while reading literature is no big deal however if a student is uncomfortable saying it then you shouldn’t force them to. That’s where she fricked up, bringing so much attention to it.

It’s pretty fricking insane how sensitive that fricking word is treated in a supposedly advanced society.
