Yes it will happen. A long way has come between then and now. But you all need to embrace it and help it get to that point. Wanting privileges over others isn't the way to go at it.. That just slows down the process of reaching equality. I make sure I don't take advantage of the privilege I have, and I want everyone to have the same rights, but wanting to keep certain words for for certain races doesn't mean equality to me.. stuff like this are still hurdles that needs to go!

you're mad about not being able to say a word while black people are mad about getting killed by white passing people and not getting justice

please stop you don't know what you're talking about

I swear to god I'm like embarrassed to be a white person

I can't believe how stupid and racist most white people still are, like...

you guys in this thread are making me sick.

Not the Medonsters trying to justify this blatant display of ignorance (But then again I use the word myself and I'm not black )

You should take a look around.
They have made fun of Rih, Bey, Shakira and Jen because of their racial backgrounds, and a lot of people have a good "kii".
But God forbid M does it in a completely harmless way because hell breaks loose.

Didn't she also have that blackface photoshoot?

[I Am Music]

And to make the point clear as someone else already said. Not every black person says the word.

Well, technically she didn't "say" it…

If she types it she most likely says it.

This argument is such a farce. "n*gga" doesn't need to be reappropriated. It's just a benign derivative of "n*gger". Fact is, "n*gger" can NEVER be reappropriated. It's too loaded.

A black person calling a person a "n*gger" still carries harsh, negative connotations. I've heard black mothers tell their disobedient kids to stop acting like "n*ggers and black people trash talking each other by calling the annoying person a "nigg-er".

Take this case of a black person who sued another black person for calling them a "n*gger": http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013...er-the-n-word/

As far as technicality goes, "n*gga" can be used by anyone. As far as formality goes, it depends who the non-black person is using the word around. But get this: "N*GGER" will never be "reappropriated".

!! The word is too hateful. No one should use it.

You have a point there. Thanks for exposing the blacks for being thieves of white culture.

So you're saying, in order for us to fully embrace the idea of equality we should allow people to casually use discriminating words? That makes no sense. Equality will only happen when prejudice words that belittle races are erased from everyone's vocabulary. There is no NEED to use those type of words.

No.. sorry, exactly what you said is what I mean... I don't want these types of words to be used at all.. I am typing way to fast so I can attempt to keep up with the thread...

the words need to be banned..

Girl... I hope you ain't trynna be shady like that.

Why is it that most Caucasian people don't understand where the anger from African American have for them come from?

[BeyonceHatesMe]

I think she used it in a form that everyone else uses it. I'm not defending her, because she should have known not to use it. She has high status, so everything she says will be analyzed. But i do think the word is being used more and more each day and that is why i think she felt it was okay.

But like i said, she should have known better.

Nicki's black.

And your point is? Doesn't change anything about the history of that word. And if it's offensive, it's always offensive. Whether someone uses it against you or in a song with a cute beat.
