Is hip hop a contoversial topic and how does it relate to Huckleberry Finn
Some people say that hip hop is controversial but why? what makes it controversial? the swearing, the use of the "N" word, the videos what? well i say that it is controversial but what isn't! And who does this relates to Huck Finn. Here is my three reasons why Hip Hop.
My first reason is the use of nigger or as blacks say nigga but is it right that black rappers use the word "nigga" in mostly all of their songs when African Americans fought so hard to get their name cleared.But let a white person say nigga watch what happens they are going to be called races and probably get beat up for it.I don't think it's right that blacks say it everyday.African Americans are so ignorant how can they call each other that when there ancestors were beat when called that name.To me they live up to the name nigger which i think they are but not all. Do you think that anyone should say the word nigger at all without it seeming races. That is one controversy in Hip Hop but there is more.
The second reason is the video girls. Do you think the every rap video should have video girls. Some say that do they need a video girl for every song it can be a slow about love or something song and they will have a bunch of girls and they are dancing all fast to it y'all don't need a girl dancing in every video damn!!! that's was played out years ago. I can see if it was a song for the club or something but not all the time. It is fun to see the choreograph a see new dances.
My last reason is racial discrimination and by that i mean will a black rapper sell more records than a white rapper. People say that all black people don't know music all they know is rap and hip hop. To me that is there opinion of a black stereotype
There are very few white rappers and people say that they are from the ghetto with no money or poor white trash. Rap to me is like any other music it's the way you express your self without getting in trouble. So would you want blacks running around killing than making something of there self, i would.
Those were my three opinions i not saying they are right or wrong. Hip Hop is what you do it's your feelings. Rather it's girls dancing in front of the camera. Even if it's a white or black person hip hop is hip hop. No madder what it is a good way to express yourself it's a form of art

Should Huckleberry Finn be taught In School
Huckleberry Finn was a good book. It's realistic of the south with slavery and illiterate people and the whites and blacks troubles. To many people this book is controversial because of a couple issues like the use of the word nigga over 50 times. And how they made the slave Jim act in this book like all black people act that way like a stereotype. Here are my three reasons why to me it is not controversial.
My first reason for why huckleberry should be taught in school is that you can learn about the old south from this book. Like how blacks in whites interacted back then. Also how people treated back in general. You can learn about racism and how some whites can be kind hearted. Although it says the word nigger over and over again it's no harm because that's what really happened, they didn't walk around saying kind words to African Americans back then so why lie to us now.
My second reason is that some people say that it is racist but to me it is the truth of the south and the truth should be told. There shouldn't nothing held back even thou it is a little racist but it is the truth about the old south. This shows that not only blacks but poor white people with no education weren't treated that great either. They weren't treated as badly as African Americans but they weren't treated as well as rich white folks with an education.
My last reason is because it is probably controversial to some people that means it is not to others. And the controversy makes it a very good story. I don't know why people say it controversial but what isn't controversial theses days. I like the book and who ever doesn't oh well there missing out on a great book.
Huckleberry Finn is a good book. It is very positive about the south because it didn't make up no lies and kind of hept the truth. It's very good in so many different ways and to me understandable. Also so what it is controversial that is a good book then if it has controversy because it's being ta;liked about. These are my three reasons why it should be taught in school it would be Good book to learn from and a wonderful experience.
