[quote=Anonymous]I'm black. When I was eight (1990), I went skiing for the first time. The guy operating the lift rolled his eyes when he saw me and said to the other guy, "Here comes another one of THEM. Don't you belong on a basketball court or something?" That same week my grandmother got on me about something and said, "Nigga, have you lost your everlasting mind?" The fact that my grandmother used an "ugly, outdated word from a bygone era" (to quote someone on television) didn't even enter my mind. I just knew she was mad, because I put my shoes up on her couch. The guy on the ski trip, however, provided me with my first experience with racism, and he used a common pronoun to do it. I don't care about the "N-word." It's just a word. There are plenty of them used everyday to convey hate. [/quote]
