It has stings hard and it goes straight to the soul. It lances the collective heart and strikes terror into people. It has been regulated to the backwaters of vocabulary and may it rust in peace and never to be exhumed.

I did a short blog post on it as well, and believe that, if we are going to protest something, we should be able to say it. “N-word” is just silly for a bunch of adults, and it was clear that Clemens was writing satire.
