im black and even though racial slurs are disgusting and reflect hatred and ignorance, i would NEVER ban saying the n word. america is founded on freedom of speech. black people are no exception. end of story.
i can kind of relate to her. i have never grown up in a "ghetto" neighborhood, but i live in a mixed neighborhood near the city and black people were constantly telling me that i "act white". white people have also said this to me. ive attended private schools my entire life and thats something that im very grateful for because i was exposed to different people and cultures. im glad that i wont be another contribution to a racist, played out stereotype.
