Why it's so hard to talk about the N-word

Title:: Why it's so hard to talk about the N-word
Speaker:: Elizabeth Stordeur Pryor
Description:: Historian Elizabeth Stordeur Pryor leads a thoughtful and history-backed examination of one of the most divisive words in the English language: the N-word. Drawing from personal experience, she explains how reflecting on our points of encounter with the word can help promote productive discussions and, ultimately, create a framework that reshapes education around the complicated history of racism in the US.
