(10)Russell Peters Comedy - REAL FUNNY (N) WORD
I thought of this def comedy episode after our conversation on the "N" word last class. I really digg this comedian he get most of his material from racism. I watched this on tv a few years back. The comedian Russell Peters makes it funny and informative for all of his audiance. (of all races) I think in his case he is using comedy to inform people about racism. Because he totally understands the way in which the black community and other minorities within the these communities use the word and why. I think this is a good way to explain how content is king concerning this issue. Also how the words meaning varies based on the situationa and the intent behind its use. (lol I hope you enjoy it as much as I did)
