Racist speech

[tomatoes]

i am writing a speech for english a2 about civil right movements, in this speech i am a black panther member and at one point i say "kill the white man", can i write this in my speech or it's going too far?

I'd be more comfortable giving an answer if you gave some more context.

If you're writing this speech for a project, and it's a creative piece meant to show something, then it's fine. I haven't studied that party, but I remember an MLK speech about the danger and implication of 'black power.' Anyways, I'm not in an A2 class, but for a World Lit for A1, we had the option to do a creative piece where we'd analyze some aspect of the work we were studying and create a literary piece that showed insight. If it's something like that, then I encourage you to try to get into the heads of the ones you're trying to imitate. Show the deep resentment, the hate, the mourning. Be realistic.

thank you for answering, btw i solved by substituting the words "kill" or "die" with "hit" or some other stuff, you know, people don't like too strong messages. live long and prosper

Depends, I personally wouldn't say it, but it depends how strong the character feels.
