I honestly love videos like this.
It's proof that black people did NOT take the power out of the word. Isn't that the entire point of us calling OURSELVES that word? Wasn't that supposedly the plan? Call ourselves "n1ggas" to take the power out the word? Well, looks to me like the plan failed miserably and that word still has plenty of power over us. We still get upset and offended when we're called that word..... completely contradicting the entire point of calling ourselves that word.
I would love for more black people to join me and "come out" of that word. It's a truly liberating feeling
.
I feel NOTHING when the Nword is used as a slur. Because I don't use nor IDENTIFY with that word. It's like calling a person named John, Michael. John doesn't identify with the name Michael so he doesn't react to it.
Most of you literally IDENTIFY with being a "n1gga". You've been programmed to believe In your own mind that you ARE a "n1gga" so it offends you when you're called one.
Sure, I understand people with power using the word (judges, cops, etc) but even then I'm not personally offended, those people just need to be removed from their position.
But meth heads like the one in the above video, I could careless, hell call her a "n1gger" back.
Why can't she be a "n1gger"?
