He may be kinda right. Racist whites may not stop saying it BUT we breathe new life into the word daily when it's passed down to the young ones..then you end up with these other races using it (Mexicans)
That's true. But his comments did get me thinking about the subject. I try not to say nikka but its a 2 decade old habitthe "er" version is not going anywhere as long as white supremacy still exists. We can curb ourselves from saying the "a" version but we don't need white folks telling us what to say or do.
You would also need to stomp the shyt out of Latinos too to end the n-word. They use it alot, every third word they speak is the word nikka.
Weve rationalized ourselves into thinking theirs a difference between er and a but there really isn't. Only reason we say it with a instead of er becuz that's how most of us talk when not in a professional setting. When Im with my boys or around family or in the barbershop Im not using the most proper English. Now these white folks think its ok that say nikka instead of ******. nikka is our word. We flipped it and made it a term of endearmentHow is this cac saying what he said any different to what typical cacs say everyday? There is a difference between nikka and n!gg3r and most cacs know it. Most cacs who use n!gg3r would still use it or just choose another word to express their disdain. Not using nikka changes nothing.

so
what does it mean?
answer.....
Basically, like most whites, I believe he's on the 'if we can't ALL say it, then NOBODY should say it" bandwagon.
I truly believe its about ego, power, and bigotry. It eats at white supremacists that black people 'can' do something they can't.
Underrated post. Too bad that simp ass black dudes let them or anyone use that word for the sake of fukking their women.
