Feb. 22, 2007, 9:30 p.m. - A well-known N-word attorney Monday will testify on why the city of New York should adopt a moratorium on the term.

Attorney Roy Miller, an Atlanta-based juvenile lawyer, who has already convinced Funk & Wagnall's Dictionary to take the word out of its editions in 1994, is scheduled to testify on the symbolic bill before the citys Committee on Civil Rights at 10 a.m.

"It should never be acceptable to refer to children as N-words," said Miller, who has been crusading against the use of the derogatory term ever since a young family member asked about the word's definition. "Grownups who throw those type of rocks into a crowd must realize that little black kids are getting hit also."

(Miller provides legal services to Redding Communications, Inc., (RCI), the parent company of Redding News Review).
