Top Tweets for #BBCnWord
Whenever I hear the N-word it makes me physically shudder
I found so many examples of this word being used to dehumanise black people when writing this piece
I hope the article gives an insight into its history and why it's such an offensive term

“BBC Racism - Why external investigation is needed” by Simon Albury https://t.co/gCqJ7Rxo81 via @simonbg12
Message to all the right-wing national radio stations calling me to comment on the #BBCNword: STOP IT. I will never be your race pawn (or should I say ‘porn’)
Everyone I spoke to said it is this second mistake: Defending the unjustifiable - is what really caused the anger. And this is to do with editorial judgement at the very highest level - where there is a notable lack of Black people specifically and people of colour in general.
“People need to understand it’s OK not to know. It’s OK to be afraid of saying the wrong thing. Be open about how you are willing to learn and are happy to be corrected.” - #bjtcalumni @simijourno shares her thoughts on #BlackLivesMatter here: https://t.co/0tcnFW17Kl
Hmm it took a totally unwarranted use of #BBCNword twice, a mealy mouthed disrespectful response to 18k+ complaints using a victims family as cover, refusal 2 engage with veteran broadcaster @EddieNestorMBE then @sidemanallday resigning b4 head @bbc Plantation Overseer spoke Cha
BBC director general Tony Hall said a “mistake was made” after a news report containing the n-word was broadcast. Yesterday, Radio 1Xtra DJ Sideman quit the station saying “the defence of the action feels like a slap in the face of our community" https://t.co/hhzwhcB0z2 #bbcnword
Standing in solidarity with @sidemanallday who resigned from @BBC after a white reporter used the N-word on air twice. There are now 18,000+ complaints, a resignation of talent & BBC still defends its stance - it's a window into UK systemic racism. #BBCNword #IAintYourNword
The BBC responded to my complaints. People want an apology not an explanation. Apparently it's okay because there's context. That word holds connotations of racial discrimination around the world, anything could be contextualised with enough explaination. #bbcracism #bbcnword
Standing with all my colleagues who are shocked, outraged and hurting just like me....our struggle is real #BBCNword
