He's a pretty okay professor. His style of writing a paper was unusual and confusing. The books discussed in this class are very "ghetto" they contain profanity and are offensive, it's as if a person dropped out of JHS and wrote it. Only a fool would assign rediculously outrageous books like these. I hated the material used. But the guy's cool.
