[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again, as a Black person, it is absolutely not an acceptable term in our community. Please stop trying to make it so. Use this as an opportunity to educate yourselves and your own communities. Thanks.[/quote]

DP. The music that kids (of all races) listen to is full of that term, so it's not a surprise that they're using it too, unfortunately.[/quote]

That is not the “N word” in these songs you mention. Both are demeaning, inappropriate, and racist.

It’s like saying that girls call themselves the “b word” so my son can call his girlfriend that word too. It’s all inappropriate and harmful. Those who use it need to learn to do better but it doesn’t make the word any more acceptable.

Again, please use this as an opportunity to be educated on a community you are not apart of… and not as an excuse for people to use a racist term.[/quote]

This standard you are using for when it is acceptable to use language is literally unenforceable in a school system. Differential treatment for identical behavior based on someone’s race is illegal. That violates the Civil Rights Act. [/quote]

US Law is anti-black. [/quote]LOL[/quote]
