Unless you are black you don't understand the significance of the word.

But love ice cube. To me nwa is the Beatles of rap and they belong right up there with the beatlrs and rolling stones.

I sure as hell wont use it though, because its one of those words that make you sound low class.
No, it's not just a word, that's your problem. If it's just a word, then surely you'll have no issues calling random black people on the street it. Y'all love acting naive like you don't know the difference between you saying it and me.

Oprah would argue that you shouldn't be saying it either.

Black people will still play the slavery card decades from now, perhaps even a century from now... as a direct excuse for their lack of societal contributions. Almost EVERY single ethnic group that has migrated to America has already surpassed them in this metric. No other group seems to have a hard time not shooting each other at ridiculous rates, abandoning their children, or graduating high school(among MANY others). The most violent cities in the United States all have one common denominator. The majority demographic is African American. Slavery exists TO THIS DAY in Africa. Blaming whitey is just a convenient solution to ignoring the MAJOR lack of morals and values that plagues their community. Please call me a racist for pointing out the blatantly obvious.

It's honestly quite sad with what goes on inside the black community, but we have people focused on who can say what word. What else does Ice Cube do with his millions and his free time for the betterment of the black community? He was on the Bill's show to promote his album, not fight for "equality", let's not get confused. And do I really have to point out the irony of someone like Ice Cube complaining about what other people say?

If it's not a word meant for white people then why have I been called the n word, and why do black people even call white people the n word? I think the word's usage would be less controversial if it wasn't used so casually in society.

Should we start banning every word that makes people uncomfortable?

The N-word is irrelevant to me, its just a word. I always ask which one is the racist in the context of the actual term racist. A white business owner who hires blacks yet has the balls to call the them the Nword, yet still promotes and pays appropriately or a white business owner with the kindest of demeanor to blacks yet never hires any. Racism when seen from whites has a lot of exclusion to make sure that most folk don't get caught up in it, so it has been reduced to some bad mouthing guy saying mean things. President Roosevelt is a loved man who help in WW2 etc, yet we can all agree that he was an extreme racist due to the Jim Crow laws he continued and the segregation of Blacks. The biggest problem with racism and its institutionalization is that it because part of everyday life that you can't see it or even know its a problem. If say for a example a company requires that upper level management get a recommendation letter from others from upper level and its only filled with whites then chances are no other race will be in that inner circle of friends.

I believe personally myself and no other, that white people fear to listen or address the ills of racism because discussing it unveils them. What I mean by that is if you are my little brother and when we where kids I asked you to make sure some contraption or whatnot was locked, yet you didn't and I ended up losing an eye, finger or toe. Every time someone asked me what happened I have to narrate the story which in turn unveils what you did, which makes you feel very uncomfortable, chances that you will want to hear that story are slim, the more you hear it the more you want to distance yourself from it in varying ways. One of the many effects racism has had on the white folks is their inability to be remorseful or feel anything for black people in anyway, look at most threads involving blacks getting killed, the very idea that death is ultimate and not a thing to praise doesn't even come to mind. Look at the lynching pictures with the smiling whites or my favorite the burning ones with the smoke hitting the crowd and they just stand laughing. I mean that dead man flesh in your face and you are laughing about dead man flesh smell in your face, you can say what you want about the Nazis, but dead man flesh smell in your face being delicious is the stuff of Jehovah.
Wtf did I just read. Did you copy and paste that from a black panther pamphlet?

He literally just said he won't use it. God, so you're telling all of us if we use a word in front of random people on the street, they are gunna rage and act like a bunch of animals?? Because they have no control over their emotions??

It's already been said, you give the word so much weight and freak out, it just makes ANY person who gets offended by it insecure as phuck. It's psychology 101. Just double standard nonsense, you can defend it with w/e victim mentality you want, if black people get offended by another race using a word they use, lmao you are a weak b!tch. Learn to control your emotions and not go into a primal rage.
