I hope everyone knows what word im on about lol as due to political correctness i dont want to write it. But we are on about the "N" which many Black people, not all, use to refer to each other.
What i want to ask is why is it ok for Black people to use this word, but if white people use it then they are labeled as racist.
Surely its racist to say a white person cannot use it simply because of they are white?? That is then a discrimination of colour.
Because we are white we cannot include that word in our vocabulary.
Please do not lecture me on the origins of the word, i know the story, i know it stems from slavery.
However this is a new generation and the white youth of today are not the oppressers, and the Black youth of today are certainly not the oppressed.
There is no word that i can think of that black people are stopped from using, so why are the whites.
It cannot be 1 rule for 1 and 1 rule for the other because THAT is racist.
If the word has such strong connotations do not use it at all
