Savannah High School student bury the 'N' word

From Savannahnow

Mourners signed a funeral register and filed past a white and gold casket at the Savannah High auditorium Tuesday morning. They came to bury the 'N' word. Following the example of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People’s national convention, at which the slur was buried in Detroit last summer, teacher and WEAS radio announcer Lester L’eck White and his Savannah High School Gents HBO Club organized the ceremony. Club members had already begun breaking their own N-word habits. Tyrique Montgomery Jr., the club’s vice pClub members had already begun breaking their own N-word habits. Tyrique Montgomery Jr., the club’s vice president, has spent the last two months saying “my brother” where he might have used the N-word before.The club, which calls itself a student brotherhood organization, expanded its message school-wide in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s 79th birthday Tuesday.

Not sure if yall rember Tyrique Montgomery Jr. but he was your average Afr0 American BC student in that he played football (running back if I rember right) and left after a few short months. It's a shame he left BC because I would have loved to hear what the Spanky's crew (The Cannons, Curldawger, and CW3 Carl-when they let him come) would have to say if a Cadet inspired by the NAACP buried the "N" word on campus. I think we can all agree that the Spanky's crew would have an interesting take if this was to happen.
