We've heard it for years. Sometimes, some of us even say it. We call it a "term of endearment". We say it's not denigrating for us to use it when we are addressing one another. But, yet if someone of a different hue calls us one, we're ready to fight to the death.I suspect, that using the 'n-word' will forever be debated among us. But when listening to 10 year old Johnathan McCoy break it down, I don't think that there is one legitimate argument for its continued use by African Americans. As it has been said, "out of the mouths of babes".
Much obliged to the Ivy Vine for passing this on and MsGloria for the YouTube download.
