City Council Approves Ban On Racial Slur

February 28, 2007

The City Council voted Wednesday to approve a symbolic resolution banning the use of a racial slur in New York City.

The non-binding measure, which call on New Yorkers to voluntarily stop using the word "******," was approved unanimously.

“It's a hateful word that we should all stop using,” said City Council Speaker Christine Quinn.

Earlier this week, the council's Committee on Civil Rights passed the measure.

Sponsors say the resolution is designed to educate young people about the word’s derogatory history and meaning.

"So the fear is in the back of your mind that the 'n' word means violence against you, that means you may be hurt, kicked, spit upon, killed, hung,” said Manhattan City Councilman Robert Jackson. “And for young people that don't know the history, it's our job to try to educate them."

In support of the measure, some local business owners have pledged to prohibit the use of the word in their establishments.
