Historian and Smith College professor Elizabeth Pryor has spent much of her career studying the history of the N-word. Her father, legendary comedian Richard Pryor, made the word central to his work before renouncing it altogether. In this episode of "Settle In," Elizabeth Pryor sits down with Geoff Bennett to discuss her father's legacy and her new book, "Something We Said: Richard Pryor, a Notorious Word, and Me."
