@pandy14@JanaGallery If it’s the history that matters, surely you know the origin of the word:
“Derived from Latin and Spanish words meaning “black,” the n-word began as an ethnic slur predominantly used by rich, white slave owners. An example of how unambiguously insulting the n-word was...”
@pandy14@JanaGallery Can we discuss this further on another platform through DMs? I’m not looking to argue but I can’t fit all I have to say in a twitter thread.
@pandy14@JanaGallery It’s a SLUR. I don’t care what history BS you mention. Maybe you should teach your kids to RESPECT that it’s not their word to say. Would you like if it someone who wasn’t gay said the f slur? Yeah I don’t think so.
@pandy14@JanaGallery It’s a single word. You are trying to tell me that people who aren’t black are missing out on history by not saying a word? I think YOU should try to understand the history before justifying others to say it.
