President Obama Drops N-Word During Marc Maron’s WTF Podcast
by Alex Griswold | 8:52 am, June 22nd, 2015 video
During a candid discussion on race relations in America on the podcast “WTF with Marc Maron,” President Barack Obama used the n-word.
“It is incontrovertible that race relations have improved significantly during my lifetime and yours, and that opportunities have opened up, and that attitudes have changed,” the president told comedian and host Marc Maron. “That is a fact.”
“What is also true is the legacy of slavery, Jim Crow, discrimination in almost every institution of our lives, you know, that casts a long shadow and that’s still part of our DNA that’s passed on,” Obama continued. “We’re not cured of it.”
“And it’s not just a matter of it not being polite to say ‘nigger’ in public. That’s not the measure of whether racism still exists or not. It’s not just a matter of overt discrimination,” he said.
