Sticks and Stones, Sticks and Stones. We just heard Colin (a self proclaimed six-foot tall white guy) admitting to using the N word among friends, not as hatespeak, but with an "A" at the end (in reference to the crossover of hip hop culture). Is this OK? Call us up... 888-635-1112.

About the illustration: The above picture is a real ad from a German UNICEF campaign. The Copy reads:

“I’m waiting for my last day in school, the children in africa still for their first one.”

This campaign is “blackfacing“ white children with mud to pose as “africans“. The german kids appeal for solidarity with their contemporaries in Africa. Is this the same thing, or is it totally different?
