The rap against rap
Description
Pernicious words like 'nigger' have become standard gutter talk among a 'gangsta' subculture of African-Americans who call themselves rap artists. One black writer, columnist and cartoonist for the Tacoma Tribune got so fed up that he wrote a book calling rap 'a poison in our culture.' He vents his frustrations and shares his humorous, yet poignant anti-rap cartoons with Tony Brown.
