Self-help guru Tony Robbins said he urged a predominately black crowd to 'stand up' and call each other the N-word, a new BuzzFeed News report claims.
Robbins reportedly repeated the racial slur when sharing an anecdote from a previous speaking engagement to a predominately black crowd. Robbins said he suggested to the crowd that black people who were offended by being called the N-word"are still a slave."
Robbins also recounted that he urged the predominately black crowd to"stand up" and sing a song where they call each other the N-word. The self-help guru claimed he offered the tip for retaining one's self-control after being called a racial slur. Robbins' attorneys claimed the purpose of the seminar was to address"racial biases and disparity" and suggested the news outlet's reporting was couched in"bias and hostility ... amounting to constitutional malice."
