Red Carpet Fashion Off Key - Editorials <---- NAS ARTICLE!!!
"Before an African-American was lynched,beaten or killed they were most likely referred to as the "n"-word first."
I am not a fan of using the "n"-word in any context, whether it be with an 'a', or 'er' at the end. Some of you may think that it's something like a greeting... IT'S NOT! It's a term that was used to demean African-Americans for hundreds of years and it's a shame to hear African- Americans use the word so freely nowadays. The word stands for someone who is ignorant, has no self respect, doesn't speak proper English and has childlike qualities. The word can be used to describe Whites, Asians, as well as Blacks... however it is most commonly associated with just plainly being a normal Black person. As far as I am concerned, I am NOT a nigger; not so sure about the restof you.. but if you agree with me why would you continue to use the word in your everyday conversations???
Nas' walk down the red carpet with a shirt plastered with the word "NIGGER" in big, bold letters was utterly ridiculous... look at the article and video associated with this article and also make an effort to visit the ABOLISH THE N WORD website!
VISIT:
The makers of this site are doing something positive and in honor of Black History Month we should all make an effort to stop using the "n" word.
"we remember when rap songs never used the "N" word or profanity for that matter. We remember referring to our friends as homeboy and home girl. And we were still cool. We remember the airing of "Roots" and the sting of hearing the "N" word on national television for the first time. Now we ask ourselves what happened. What happened in our community that the "N" word is tossed around freely in everyday language? When the use of it makes you cool, down, accepted."
