In this episode of Necessary Blackness Podcast, Rahiem Shabazz discuss why Bill Maher’s apologizing for his use of the “N” word is not enough. Within the past few days, Bill Maher’s name became one of the hottest trending topics on social media for his blatant disrespect and his casual use of the most derogatory term to describe a person of African descent.

But, what s more alarming is the number of individuals who came to Mr. Maher’s defense such as Eric Michael Dyson, Larry King and others. However, individuals comedian D.L. Hugley and Chance The Rapper are opposed to giving Bill Maher’s a pass and are calling for his immediate firing from the HBO network.
