A documentary look at the cultural significance of the weighty, historically volatile "n word," this program features interviews with a variety of cultural figures, including Chuck D, Wynton Marsalis, Dr. Todd Boyd, Samuel Jackson, Bryant Gumbel, Whoopi Goldberg, Talib Kweli, and many others. An enlightening and in-depth look at a crucial topic, the film examines the history of the word and its uses, which range from a term of endearment to an abhorrent insult, as well as the personal experiences of many people. ***** It's one of the English language's most inflammatory pejoratives and has lingered like a smoldering fire in America's collective consciousness for more than 100 years. This illuminating documentary looks at the "n" word's history and ever-changing usage -- which runs the gamut from a repugnant slur to a term of endearment. A slate of celebrities and other familiar figures are interviewed, including Quincy Jones, Samuel L. Jackson and Chris Rock.
