JESSE JACKSON TO HAVE ‘N-WORD’ DISCUSSION

Jesse Jackson said that black leaders will challenge the entertainment industry to stop using the racial slur that triggered the Michael Richards scandal and will meet with TV networks, film companies and musicians to discuss the "n-word." When asked his opinion, Senator Trent Lott thought it was a bad idea. “If we stop using that one, soon they’ll be after us to give up ‘kike’, ‘spic’, ‘wop’, ‘chink’, ‘Jap’, ‘camel jockey’, ‘towelhead’, ‘faggot’ and ‘bull dyke’. Why waste all those perfectly good words just to alleviate ‘nigger’?
