[split] The word 'Nigger' and other slurs

[BrokenQuill92]

Here's the thing I don't like about being "banned" from using the word nigga. The reason I'm not supposed to say the word, is because I am white. My skin color is the same as the people that were once the oppressors. And in some kind of fucked up "original sin" type shit because white people from the past were racist motherfuckers, now I'm not allowed to say the word. I was born in '91, I don't have any connection to slavery or the racists continually trying to keep black people down during the civil rights era. We don't punish the sons and daughters of murderers for the crimes their parents committed, why am I still feeling this one?

What you're not getting is, it's not about YOU! That word is very hurtful to brown people. How you think it's about punishing you instead of minding the feelings of others I don't know.
