And they don't like the indigenous people of their homeland. They're too dark and live on their own.
Same with Mexico, central and South American countries...the darker skin, the less respected you are
Who can say N...the "N" word? vol. all you closet racist NTers contribute to the convo

Correct. Now use a derogatory word for that and convert it to a term of endearment for you and people like you.

Black person to black person, someone might not bat an eye....but you doing it outside of your social circle (where you said it's accepted,) could be a problem. That's why you said situational awareness. I think deep down you know it's not right that you're saying it. It's really easy NOT to do so.

I have roots in Syria and Lebanon thru great great grandparents but can't say I have middle eastern/Muslim friends but I gotta admit it bothers me how you're treated.
In the same breath, a lot of middle easterners and euro (Armenians) in Los Angeles love to throw the word around.

Because everybody basically abuses it, myself included. It's hard not to look at the word as derogatory.

She's the creating vibes thot.
She called her white friends N's then cried an apology but not before poking fun at the situation with a shirt stating the same word.

Man, you ain't never lied. The majority loves Mexican food and culture, but scream from the rooftops about "bad hombres," and immigrants ruining the country. I live in a predominantly hispanic community in Chicago, and nobody gives a damn about Cinco De Mayo 'rounf here . . .but the majority came down here and ACTED up on Friday. It hurt my heart a bit, but it brought money to the community, so I tried to see the silver lining.

Using a racial slur with your darker friends/family created a "bond"?
" Same thing our ancestors went through"...Oh so you were owned by another person?
No offense but that sounds dumb as hell and the way you making it sound like black folks are a monolith lets me know you're confused.

We in the same boat.
I can only speak for myself based on my experience.
I love and respect black culture.
I didn't marry or hang around blacks to be "cool" they was the only ones to embrace me. [emoji]128514[/emoji]

"Darker" . . . Did I say that? You're making assumptions, so miss me with that particular portion. And we're still subjected to discrimination and are marginalized by the majority, or does that not comport with you? Additionally, did you not read the second paragraph? Or did you just take small excerpts from my post to fit your assumptions and poorly conceived argument trying to invalidate my opinion?

This is what I always wondered
Its never anything of substance and always some weak reason like feeling 'left out' by not being able to say it
Let's call it what it is.
It's really the only thing that black people can get away with that other groups cant...
And that really bothers people.

Was at an Ab-Soul show the other night in Philly. He blatantly gave everyone a pass to say it. It was so cringe. I just think its harmful when it's blindly and ignorantly acceptable when people of other races use it.Too much to even write at the moment. Such a complex thing.

It's so complex.
My kids use music as the permission to use the word openly at school around black staff and it's alarming.
I wasn't comfortable using it till I was in my 20s.
Kids are using it in elementary
