I see that a few people seem to think that blacks flipped the word, ******. This is false because if that was the case why do we, blacks, get offended when a white person calls us ******. If it's been flipped then why you mad. If anything, even though I doubt it will happen, some stupid nikkas will go and embrace this flag, then in the same breath, be pissed when they see white folks waving their flag in the air and riding around with their confederate stickers on their pickup trucks.

I'm so sick of "our" celebrities letting us down.
My ethnic group has lost its fukking mind....We should have never integrated with these people.

"Our" celebrities are slaves to money. I can't even get mad at them because I don't expect much from them anyway. We no longer have brothas like Stevie Wonder, Muhammad Ali, and Belafonte standing up for what's right.

I see what he's doing...
I'm gonna go on a limb and say most people misunderstood a lot of the lyrics on Yeezus.
Maybe he can take a pic in a pointy white hat and pajamas and reclaim the KKK outfit as well.

This whole "we flipped the n word on em" shyt is one of the biggest fukking racial tall tales.
Tell me, when was there some conscious effort to appropriate the word ****** into our vocabulary? Who led this charge? What was the time period and is there any evidence that black people were even thinking on that linguistic issue at that time? I certainly haven't seen any evidence of this claim within the fairly comprehensively-documented civil rights era.
It's fukking nonsense. Black folks were (And are, and probably always will be) called ****** for centuries and we eventually started using the term against ourselves. It's fukking sad but this is what colonialism does to you.The term has never been widely used against white people, which has *maybe* resulted in making it some sort of unifying term amongst ourselves, but I don't buy this "oh yeah, we just stole it from y'all" shyt. The term was used to slur each other for decades (Maybe centuries, I've no clue of slaves called each other ******), over time it did have some linguistic change, but this was not intentional and I'm sick of blacks pretending that it was. "nikka" is obviously just the southern dialect version of "******". People over-think this shyt and act like there was some national movement to purposefully change the last two letters of the fukking noun. Get real. nikka is to ****** as Do'h is to Door.
My understanding : The argument likely originated in the late 80's/early 90's after rap music became popular. Outsides began to hear "nikka" constantly and began to question our community "What the fukk?". Rather than owning up to the fact that us calling each other by racial slurs is apart of the cognitive and social legacy of slavery and/or Jim crow in this country, we collectively found it more comforting to essentially make up some bullshyt excuse about word appropriation and a collective movement.
Groups can intentionally appropriate words. I remember growing up, "Queer" was truly up there with "faq" in regards to slurring gays. The LGBT movement seems to have successfully appropriated the word however, and it was actually extremely "top down" in that you had organizations, television shows, flyers, concerts, etc purposefully promoting the word as "their own" as opposed to an outsider term.
Sometimes it fails. Certain feminist types have been trying to appropriate "bytch" for some time, but it's never really seemed to catch on and "bytch" is still mostly seen as offensive in most context.
While Kanye may claim that he's doing some sort of appropriation or that he's making some sort of artistic and/or creative statement, judging from his personal life, I just don't buy it. The guy married fukking Kim Kardashian and hasn't dated within his race for years before that...so any racial incident that he gets into that peaks my eye will be highly scrutinized. You wanna make a racial "statement", have a strong black family and create a legacy that will actually help your people. Otherwise, fukk off.
Even if I did "buy it"....he's well out of touch with "his" community on this issue. He's alone. He's alone because he's doing this for money and publicity. Black folks aren't trying to fukking appropriate the confederate flag. It's a symbol of hatred and we want it away from government buildings and out of the fukking public sphere.
fukk off Kanye.
Ali ultimately failed as well.
