Whether he is or not is not the point. I think that we've created a bizarre situation where whites are held to a higher standard than non-whites when it comes to this word.
Anyone who watches Def Comedy Jam knows that it's thrown around like nothing by blacks, so why are black entertainers not held accountable for using it?
Could it be because they are held to a lower standard of personal behavior because they are black?
Isn't that racist?
Nope....it's affirmative action in action...../sarcasm
It absolutely is racist. You're right.
