, my nigger, i don't do that anymore. i did that up until about two years ago. when obama came into office, i said i don't think this fits the zeitgeist anymore for me to be using it, but i'm not telling my brothers what not to do. but when you get on stage as an artist, there are other things that come into play. and i saw in particular niggas in paris was actually really brilliant because he's dealing with, hey, i'm from marcy projects. >> yeah, i understand. >> i'm from the hood. >> right. >> and if you came from what i came from, you'd be in paris getting fucked up too. [laughter] and it's extraordinary that -- >> yeah, right? >> before you go on, my question is not really that, my question is, is there a responsibility for these international superstars not to use that word? because i don't use it, i don't want anybody around me using it. you know, i mean you can't say to them, you can't use it, but don't you feel like there should be at some height in your career a requirement that you don't use such an ignorant wor

are telling me about what happened to them, they're dealing with something more than somebody said nigger. .. i have a co-worker who has kids who are 12 or 14 and she makes a big deal saying my kids care anymore, they don't care about race anymore. it's different. she's very, you know, adam at -- adamant. they just don't care. is that a good thing or a bad thing. dvds unrealistic? do you think this kind of on the way to this post racial thing? >> [inaudible] [laughter] >> it is a little interesting. one of the thing to sociologists tell us is the denial of racism is racism in and of itself and that is a form of microaggression macroaggression in some cases. look, 12 to 14 is a bit early to have that level of racial identity. you know you're black, you know you're white. you know other people are asian or what have you but they haven't fully begun to a sign things that have no power. they will catch up. i mean i know that they are aware of race. i had an extraordinary moment because my son is three and a half now. i don't talk to him about being black. i don't say these things because he i

>> according to testimony, i ran that nigger over. >> witnesses say he almost was bragging about it. that he was laughing about it really. >> that's what we plan to present. >> darrell deadman has pled not guilty. his attorney has refused to answer cnn's many calls for comment. though during one court appearance that attorney said he didn't see any evidence racism was involved. the district attorney says nothing else was involved. he has classified this as capital murder and a hate crime. you would think it would be a wake-up call for any town where that kind of hate could fester. but this is brandon, mississippi. think again. >> it's an unfortunate incident. it happened, but you know, once it happened, we haven't gone into you know, code red oh, my god, we've got a major problem. let's stop traffic and everybody feeds to go home and lock their doors and you know, we just kind of just keep going, doing what we do. >> here where a confederate war memorial stands at the center of town, the police say there were no warning signs. but we found the police are wrong. cnn has learned invest

speaker, nigger is offensive. nigger head is offensive. and for a governor of one of the great states of our nation to hunt at nigger head camp, it's offensive, and i think that i'm expressing the moral outrage of all americans and i thank the gentleman for allowing me to make my argument. the chair: the chair is prepared to rule. the resolution offered by the gentleman from illinois makes several assertions of the governor of the state and calls upon the governor and others to take certain actions. in order to qualify as a question of the privileges of the house under rule 9 the resolution must address, quote, the right of the house collectively, its safety, dignity or the integrity of its proceedings, end quote. the resolution seeks to express the position of the house toward the actions of others outside of the house without any changeable connection to the house or its proceedings. a resolution merely asserting the position of the house with regard to an external issue cannot be used as a question of privilege. most recently on septemb

you can stand on the stage across from president obama, the first african-american president with niggeranging over your head which is what this story will be for him. this is the reason why this is -- this is among other reasons why kris humphries tee is trying to be wooed because perry has skeletons in his closet and the gop knows once he gets in front of barack obama these stories will come out and derail his campaign. >> we have said it was used for rock formation and it is part of our nation's history and there were other names that word was used in. i'm wondering how does a candidate recover, can a candidate recover once they have been associated with a controversy over the word nigger. >> it is so powerful this word. this word is so powerful, such an atomic bomb on a campaign we need to be careful, very responsible about how we treat the story. you know that "washington post" was full of anonymous sources, full of speculation and i don't know that i want to be a pundit that goes on tv and speculates about this any further. i think these are questions for rick perry to answer at th

the name of the place was called nigger head. >> jon: thank you, black walnut. but according to the governor's wife anita perry, the real reason for governor rick perry's decline is something much more insidious. >> we've been brutalized by our opponents, our own party, so much of that is i think they look at him because of his faith. >> jon: two things. number one. where are you? you know, you know what's crazy about that painting behind her? i bet if you remove anita perry there's a picture of a woman who looks exactly like her already standing there... alright. and number two, republicans are brutalizing rick perry because of his faith? yes, no one gets it worse from the base of the republican party than evangelical christians. or as they're also known, the base of the republican party. but at least some evangelicals are fighting back. like first baptist church of dallas pastor and rick perry supporter robert jeffress who goes in hard on mitt romney supporters. >> mitt romney is a good, moral person but he's not a christian. mormonism is not christianity. it

well a nigger about the afghan war is now. which has the second largest number of troops deployed in the country hundreds of soldiers have been killed in the conflict and antiwar activists celebrities and politicians are gathering in london protesting over a point of war are things that are bad it is there for us and joins us live now ivor what can you tell us about the death of war sentiment expressed there on safaga square on this ten year anniversary among people of. all events here village three just in the last five minutes wound down and the british protesters now making their way there marching to number ten downing street to take their protests to the prime minister but before that just moments ago the square was full of protesters old and young. showing that the antiwar sentiment in the british public's imagination and minds is still very much at the forefront and there are two thousand people gathered on the square here and the event was really given a catalyst in the middle about an hour or so ago following the surp

that rock said nigger head on it. i mean, people don't say it because they think it's better not to say the word, but the full outrageousness of that episode can be captured only if you don't fuzz it over or obscure it. it needs to be articulated, you know? i didn't hesitate -- if that word came up in the course of my book, i used it because that was part of the language of 1957. now, the perry story illustrates that it's part of the language of 2012. i mean, we know -- or 2011. it was pointed over and apaintly disappeared at some point, but beneath the surface of the history of this country, there are a million episodes like this. it's everywhere. it's absolutely everywhere, and you know, we do ourselves no favor not to acknowledge it, and it's sort of -- i'm kind of pleased whenever, you know, when haley barber says something or when an episode like this happens or we can think of many other up stances where -- instances where race peaks up its ugly head, it needs to be discussed, it needs to be ventilated. it has n

in the invasion of iraq receive the same thing german media has basically niggers just hated the liers office and the police department public information officers and their press releases saying that you know that the bad camp is so dangerous they had to take action and absolutely not see the tempest in a thing and really in fact it's been one of the most diverse camps in the country and one let me ask you a few questions about that because i went down to the cotton parts just the other week and we went to the show from there and we happened to be there the night that everybody with preparing because they thought of the big cleanup is going to happen the next morning they're preparing for the police and so what the kind of part occupiers decided to do was start a massive cleanup operation themselves so they. improve you can't complain of this about sanitation because that places was speaking fan i must admit especially if you compare it to other streets in new york did we see those types of efforts in oakland or is there a little bit of a different reaction and i guess it's a relation

." >> the name of the place is called nigger head. that's very insensitive. since governor perry has been going there for years to hunt, i think it shows a sensitivity of not taking that word off of that rock and renaming the place. that's a case of insensitivity. >> cain has since backed away from his words saying he's satisfied with perry's explanation and he's neither attacking the governor nor playing the race card, that's a quote. as for the governor, he's taken strong exception to the "post" story, a number of claims made in the story are incorrect, inconsistent and anonymous. as for the last part, anonymous sourcing, that is true. they make no attempt to conceal it. perry's father painted over the offensive name back in 1983 or '84. "the post" cites seven people most anonymously, some who say they saw the word more recently. keeping them honest, their recollections of when they saw it range from the 1980s to the 1990s to as little as three years ago. the perry campaign said the word was painted over no later than '83 or '84. there's a lot of daylight b
