"Bitch." "Trick."
"Ho." These are common words for women
in rap and hip hop. This month
Essence
magazine launched a highly publicized
"Take Back the Music"
campaign against misogynistic
lyrics--lyrics which are indicative of
the painful divide between black men and
black women.
Reggie Brass of
My Child Says Daddy
works with young
African-American fathers and believes that the
misogynistic rap culture exists because of rampant fatherlessness in the African-American community.
Reggie and Glenn discussed the decline of
the black family and what can be done about it on
