Question about the 'N' word
« on: November 02, 2007, 01:07:37 PM »
Asking black people and white people.

If you are Black, do you let your white friends use it around you?   If you are white, do you say it around your white friends but not around your black friends? 

My personal politics is that I don't feel it's acceptable to say personally (speaking for myself).  You will never hear that word come out of my mouth.   I think that it;'s ok for black people, but I hear white people say that if blacks can say it then they should be able to.     How many non-black people on Slap use this word, and why do you do it? 

p.s.  Totally serious topic.  Not trying to turn this into a hate battle or anything, just was wondering if this could be talked about in a mature fashion.  If not, I don't mind if the topic gets deleted.  I don't invite that kinda hate.

first of all, we need to differentiate here.  I heard a comedian once say that pronouncing the ER will put you in the ER.  I feel the same way.  i would never say the word nigger casually. 

as far as the word nigga is concerned, i used to say it whenever id be drinkin or whatever, it kinda comes out naturally when you listen to wayy too much nas.  but i dont really say it anymore.  I feel too self-consious when i do it, like when you're about to cuss around your parents. i use substitutes like fella or pimpin or plurrr.  some people say brutha but i dont.  i'll say bruh but not brutha.  i do sometimes refer to black men as brothas though, or black women as sistas. 


bottom line is, i get annoyed when i hear white boys say it, so i dont say it. 

for q-tip's opinion listen to sucka nigga from midnight marauders

I'm black on the inside.

I see it like this, racial slurs are like talking about family. I'll talk shit on my family with love but it wouldn't be a smart thing for you to do, especially if I'm within earshot.

And likewise, no non-black person should ever use the N word. I've never heard it come out of a non-black mouth and sound OK. And when it does I think it's just natural consequences for people to get beat.

Same goes with "cracker/white trash/gringo/wedo," whatever. I'll joke about my folk but it stings coming from other races.

Whatever, that's how it goes in my mind. But there's a power dynamic there as well. People in a position of power shouldn't be talking shit on people who aren't. So I think it's worse for white folk to call other minorities racial slurs, 'cause in general at the end of the day the white folk still have it easier.

Just sayin'.

I'm no rascist but don't mind calling it like I see it. For many years I've noticed saying the word honkey or hick isn't really such a bad thing, or people don't really get bent out of shape by it but when the word nigger is brought up it's a sure sign of rascism. Well wouldn't calling someone a honkey make you a rascist too? Seems weird. Don't want to stereotype but it's hard to not think that some handle the insults better than others.  Same thing with comedians. Alot of black comedians crack white jokes but I never really hear white comedians crack black jokes. I know it's a touchy subject but maybe black people need to let it roll of their shoulders. I guess you guys can start throwing the tomatoes at me now.

look sanch, how bout a blow job for a magik tee?

That's the power dynamic I was talking about. We've got over 300 yrs of fucked up history where minorities have gotten the short end of the stick. And still shit's not a level playing field. Look at home ownership, education, prison rates, job pay... Fair or not all that shit's a factor any time a white dude opens his mouth about minorities.

I can't say I'm against it with "a" at the end, cause I'm guilty of listening to explicit rap.

Except for when white dudes say it.

Please do shut up.

No doubt. I agree, right and wrong aside, it sounds rediculous coming out of the mouths of whites. Except for in the original Scared Straight. I think of couple of those white Jersy sounding death row inmates say it to the white kids who go in there and cry. Now that shit's funny.
