Much has been made of Nikki Giovanni’s “fear” for her personal safety when personally mentoring her student, “Cho”. This fear could not have come from his writings, however. His writings were very much in the style and content of his mentor. The verbiage of her poem, “The True Import of The Present Dialogue, Black vs. Negro (For Peppe, Who will Ultimately Judge Our Efforts)” would probably not permit it to be printed on this website. I urge everyone, however, to follow the URL below (bottom of the page) containing copy of Nikki’s “poem” to see how closely Mr. Cho followed the style and content of his teacher’s racist rantings. Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, Laura Ingraham, please pick up this ball and run with it!
