The "In" Word 1

The “In” Word documentary explores the commonplace use of the n-word and how people use the word without any regard of its history. The film analyses if the casual use of the word in hip-hop/rap music - which is highly financed by suburban teenagers, has been appropriated along with other aspects of Black culture. Has the etymology of the n-word moved from a history of pain to a form of artistic expression?
