NOAW's Official Statement in Regards to the Controversial Remarks Made by John Mayer

 

THE NATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR AFRICAN-AMERICAN WOMEN
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: February 11, 2010
Statement from the National Organization for African-American Women in regards to John Mayer’s recent Playboy interview:
The NOAW is outraged by the recent degrading and irresponsible statements made by recording artist John Mayer. His statements in regards to African-American women were disgraceful. The use of the ‘N’ word was particularly offensive and vile. His outlandish statements are a slap in the face to the multitude of African-American people who are his fans and who have purchased his music.
