The n word is part of the Latino lexicon. It's galvanized into their culture. It's embraced, its welcomed.
You got to understand that these countries that these Latinos escaped from was already and still racist AF toward black people. They have their little words for nikkas, stereotypes, treatments and the most unconscionable beliefs about black people. So when they came to the United States they paused or hid their racism. They were entrenched in the same neighborhoods as nikkas, shared the same resources and slithered their way into the black culture. Blacks being so welcoming that they embraced the Latino, called them brown brothers and the Latino ate it up. They basically ran with the whole brown brothers in the struggle black people coined. It was never the Latino referring to blacks as THEIR brothers in the struggle. They slithered around and misappropriated the culture, they dikk rode, they culture vultures etc. This is the truth and Latinos on here be mad as hell when I say this but never give proof or bring a valid argument that's it's not. They just get mad. Y'all snakes, own it.
I grew up around latinos and the only time I heard the N word was when they was using N word with the hard R on the end. During this time hiphop was prevailing in the urban neighborhoods. Black folks was already calling each other nikkas and the Latino was given a pass to use the word and was never checked. JLo, Fat Joe and them other Latino hip-hop artists perpetuated this pass that was given into their music and though the alliances, relationships, collaboration they had with black artists and it had a snowball effect within the urban culture.
The dikk riding of the Latino further gathered steam with the adoption of black music and merging it with their own and called it reggaetone or whatever. Wanting to be like black folks they also started using the n word in their music. The music drove the culture. It's hard pressed to find a Latino that didn't use the N word every third word in a sentence in their language or the Spanglish they sometimes speak
So peep this . . NY used to be the mecca of hip-hop and black radio stations. In the radio station market you will have so many Latino DJs to the point you had no more black DJs on black radio. DJs like Funk Flex, Clue, Capri, Red Alert, Marley Marl etc were staples on black radio (98.7 kiss Fm, hot 97, 105.1 . Yes these were older DJs but they were never replaced with younger black DJs but were replaced with Latino DJs. The need to include Latinos in the hiphop realm was pushed by Jews and Latino executives. It's no way Angie Martinez would exist if she didn't dikk ride her relationship with artist like Lil Kim, BiG and others.
In the NYC radio market it's hella Latino radio stations. They play their music and would NEVER play any RnB or hip-hop or allow the format of their radio material include anything black. Now it's hard to listen to NY radio without hearing Latino music.
No other word for another ethnicity or race is used as prevalent or intentional as the N word. You can't even use the word Jew in a song, wetback, spic or faq in a song without having them groups up in arms but you can say nikka all day everyday.
Latinos don't give a fukk man. I know it. They know it. My 2 cents
