Trump Effect: I was called the N-Word & Monkey by two callers to my show. Isn't it 2019?

Today, on the Martin Luther King Holiday, I was doing a show with renown Houston Progressive activist Neil Aquino when in the middle of the show two callers performed two orchestrated calls to "remind me" that I was black using derogatory terms. They likely did not get the reaction they expected.

they called you a "ni-ger" and a monkey. After all, you don't know what's in their hearts. And you don't know what happened to them before they called in. For all you know, a group of crazy Asians may have yelled at them, so why wouldn't they react this way?

I'm going to wait until I hear their side of the story before jumping to conclusions.

Is there a video I can review carefully?

You need to read the carefully prepared statement given by "God's" PR firm. And maybe "God's" mamma will also enlighten us.
