Anyone else making a concious effort to not say nikka?

[Vonte3000]

I have no problems censoring myself around older people, family members, formal situations in general etc but It becomes a pretty difficult thing to do when interacting with my peers, especially when no one in my social circle is doing it, they all buy into the nikka is different word then ni99er bullshyt. Starting to feel that I'm on a pointless crusade that's going nowhere

I feel you, I already don't call women bytches and people look at me like when I say that kind of shyt

I think about this a lot, why we say it or when we started saying it and all that shyt. I did try once but hanging around black people makes it damn near impossible to do, when I'm around my white friends it's easy as shyt not to.

That 2 different words things was always bullshyt to me personally, it's funny people say we took it back and when Ye tried to take the confederate flag back the same way he got shyt for it. I live in the south I see that shyt almost everyday and maybe I'm desensitized to it but I hear people say "You know how many blacks were hung with that flung in the back ground" and I'm just like "You know how many were hung while being called a nikka/******"

It's a complicated subject I was actually gonna make a thread asking when it got popular to call each other that

Its your mind.

I still dont see it as the same word.

Enough about words and your feelings, how about you focus more on action and results to further black men so it can go somewhere.

Im making a conscious effort to say it more.

No one is going to convince me that the bane of my struggle as a black man in this country is due to a six letter word. fukkouttahere.

nikka

I come from a diffrent culture so I never grew up with "nikka". I don't really ever say it unless I'm rapping a song, using insults "for example bytch nikka" or substituting "wtf" with "nikka!?"


I see some younger black dudes who abuse it. Literally every other sentence. They have no tact or social awareness at all and say it around other whites and races in causal conversation. It's sad sometimes I wonder if there parents say nikka. Do black parents say nikka?

Black american parents say nikka

Make that thread

 

[BrehWyatt]

Yes. I'm at the point now where basically, if it's not just me and my roommate, it's not getting said. Not even around black women. Summer intern we had at my work not too long ago was prone to saying it from time to time. Kind of had me on status.

Her ass was fat, though

 

[kaldurahm]

never actually use it tbh, if used it's likely a reference to something for me.

Definitely.

A lot of times it feels weird to even hear it in mixed company and I don't even want to be the one who lets it slip and indirectly legitimize it those who may be around who aren't black.
