Oh? What about the Black Communities(And also the Indigenous Communties) in Latin America?
Or are you just gonna pretend like they don't exist like the various governments in Latin America?

OhRly?

how many of the people in this thread that are so offended and sending out "warnings" are not black I wonder?

Care sis, you might be warned as well

BITCH IN what world are Latinos more oppressed than Black people.

Name something that happened to Latinos that's worse than slavery, segregation, and police brutality. Think before you try to sound smart, because you look stupid.

Latinos suffer from police brutality too, and from issues that most black people in the States (since there ARE black latinos, latino is not a race) do not suffer from, like being targeted by racist laws for deportation and having their language systematically stamped out by education reforms. BUT it's not good to try to play this game and figure out "who is more oppressed?". Certain issues are specific to certain races and the N word is specific to black people obviously.
I don't see why anyone who isn't black should be using that word, considering how it's been used and in what contexts it's been used. It's like me with the F word for gays...every time someone uses it I can't help but think of how that is the last word countless gay men have heard as they were getting bashed and killed. Unless it's something that affects you (n word with black people, f word with gay men, etc) then don't ****ing say it.

How is that song getting praised?

It's terrible.

I feel like the people in this thread defending non blacks using the word are the same people who say **** like "Black people like fried chicken, watermelon, and Kool Aid

That's such a piss poor logic though. White people have used the n word and all it's variations well before it became a common word amongst black vernacular. So blacks not using it wouldn't stop whites from saying it.

Did she forget who invented the n word?

And as if white people don't use it nowadays to describe black people. And it's not because of hip-hop songs. It's because that's what their grandparents and parents used to call black people. You learn certain things from the home.

Right?! Can we stop pretending that people are mindless enough to be influenced by EVERYTHING they see/hear.

MTE. Everyone is acting like Blacks are being racist towards theirselves, when we use it as a term or endearment. When non Blacks use it, I can't stand it. Whites and Latinos weren't slaves so why should they have the privilege of using it.

This.

Segregation created the N-word. Once racism is over, the word will become irrelevant.

I don't get why white people want to say this word so badly. I mean, black people had slavery and discrimination. You not being able to use a word is not a big deal.

SailorMoon

Entirely different usage when the N word is met with the ending A or ER

Samuel

Terrible song anyway!

GypsyLife

I don't care for the word but she could have used her coins on a better lyricist. This song is in the pits and using the N word did not make it better
