Flaws in this POV; 1. The word is a white invention. 2) When the word is put to music consumed overwhelmingly by whites, it is no longer "just between us". 3) Use of the word does not contribute to our betterment psychologically. @tanehisicoates youtube.com/watch?v=QO15S3…

Check out a thoughtful response by @larrywilmore on @nprfreshair. We should be able to critique the art and still embrace the artist.


Larry’s closing shot adds to the 8 yr pile of disrespect for our 1st "black” leader of the Free World. How about... “Mr. President”?


Unfortunately, Larry Willmore’s bad stuff overpowered his good stuff.


Irony of presidential politics: Trump helps Hillary; Bernie’s helping Trump. Young black Sanders supporters - hate Hillary at your peril.
