Campaigner Reverend Al Sharpton and his National Action Network has announced they will stage a twenty city tour of the US to protest about the use of the word "ho" in popular culture, which apparently all the hos out there find offensive. This is all part of the recently invigorated campaign to remove racist and sexist language from hip hop, which, as previously reported, all began when the decidedly un-hip hop Don Imus got in trouble for calling a team of mainly black female basketball players "nappy-headed hos".
Talking to Allhiphop.com about the latest campaign, Sharpton said: "First of all, the ones that are being attacked are Black people. We are being called niggers and women, who they call hos and bitches ... we're reacting to an attack ... they exploit our pain, they're not expressing our pain". Sharpton and his fellow protestors will focus their protests on large media organisations who broadcast content containing the offending words.
