arly Tuesday morning, Chester Hanks, the son of beloved white millionaire Tom Hanks, posted an Instagram video to explain that “hip-hop isn’t about race” and it’s actually extremely fresh that he says “nikka.”

By his own admission, however, Chet knows most of you won’t “get” it, so he accompanied his video with a 280-word screed about how “fukk[ing one’s] hating ass nikkaz” is actually an inalienable right protected by the Constitution:

If I say the word nikka I say it amongst people I love and who love me. If I say “fukk yall hatin ass nikkaz” it’s because that’s really how I felt at the time. And I don’t accept society getting to decide what ANYBODY can or can’t say. That’s something we call FREE SPEECH. Now I understand the older generation who grew up in the Jim Crowe era might have strong feelings against this. And that’s understandable... But what I’m saying is this is 2015... And even tho we are still far from where we need to be and black people are still being literally KILLED by a RACIST and fukked up system... We have also reached a point where the word can no longer have a negative connotation if we so choose. And who is to say only black people can use it? The way I see it, it’s a word that unifies the culture of HIP-HOP across ALL RACES, which is actually kind of a beautiful thing. It’s a word that can be used out of camaraderie and love, not just exclusively for black people. What’s the point in putting all these built up “rules” about it. It’s time to let go. You can hate me or love me for it, but can’t nobody tell me what I can or can’t say. It’s got nothing to do with trying to be a thug. It’s about the culture of the music. And that’s all I have to say about that (no pun intended) lol. It’s all love. Some people will get it, some people won’t. Either way, Ima keep living my life however the fukk I want. ALL LOVE.

So really, Hanks’ use of the N-word comes from a place of love. If only you “hating ass nikkaz” could see that.

Chet shames his father's legacy. fukking knucklehead.

So he went for the free speech defense.

Pretty sad when the only term you can think of to express your love to the world is the last slur that thousands of Blacks heard as they were strung up from trees and burned at the stake.

White people wanna say 'nikka' so badly it's fukkin' hilarious.

Unfortunately a there's lot of black people give them passes and let them say 'nikka'. Go on twitter and and you'll see plenty of white people saying 'nikka' like it's no big deal. I'm black and I never say that word.

 

[No Sleep]

He know when and where to say it. He real comfortable in those rich white neighborhoods protected by those blue boys.

 

[OG_StankBrefs]

Worst part is dere are actual dumb c00ns cosignin him and lettin him cook wit dat bullshyt. Just peep some of his instagram & Facebook comments.

 

[DrexlersFade]

Sure no one can tell him not too say it but you also have too deal with the consequences of your actions

 

[Dzali OG]

I'm sure he doesn't frequent anywhere he'll get punched in the mouth for saying it.
