"Why do we (BLACK PEOPLE) find Ni**er in everything?"
Wed Apr-29-15 10:10 AM by Case_One

          

And when I say We I mean me too. And when I say everything, I mean every adjatiave that comes from any power structure (Black or White) other than our own mouths or direct community.

It seem that when any other group or organization uses the following words to describe anything remotely associated to Black people we automatically default to hearing the word "Nigger."

Nigger = Nigger
Those people = Nigger
You people = Nigger
Some people = Nigger
Hoodlum = Nigger
Thug = Nigger
Rioters = Nigger
Suspect = Nigger
Ignorant people = Nigger
Blacks = Nigger
Welfare recipients = Nigger
Lazy = Nigger
Poor people = Nigger
Convict = Nigger
Needy people = Nigger
Democrat = Nigger
Etc =Nigger

I'm sure there are other words that are available. But we seem to a act like we're on a Nigger word scavenger hunt.

It's like we (me too) are captivated by the word and we seek wrap ourselves in it like a flag as a way to gain notice or shame the other group. And then we dare others to actually use the word Nigger.


Hey like I said i'm guilty of it too, but can we talk about this without being SNARKY, condescending, judgmental or mean?

           Did you miss it?
Apr 29th 2015
26
                Yes. You jumped from someone else's verbalization to our internalization...
Apr 29th 2015
30
                     So, you can see the correlation between the default and self image?
Apr 29th 2015
34
                          Look, your thought process isn't mine. This conversation is going nowher...
Apr 29th 2015

                               So, having a dialog that's has different view points is too hard. Ok

                                              if we play w/Legos you play w/Duplos.

      It's just silly not to. Racism isn't dead. Jim Crow isn't dead.
Apr 29th 2015

      Yes I'm optimistic, but I also know the power of words
Apr 29th 2015

still doesn't change the fact that those terms still mean non-code shit
Apr 29th 2015

It is there
Apr 29th 2015

Ok, I understand the assumption and default.
Apr 29th 2015

      With coded language, I don't think so.
Apr 29th 2015
12
      It happens, but what good has the default provided
Apr 29th 2015
31
           Has it? I don't think so.
Apr 29th 2015

Apr 29th 2015

We aren't the ones who started racialied language -edit-
Apr 29th 2015

But we are the ones perpetuating the default.
Apr 29th 2015

      Youre blaming the victim here
Apr 29th 2015
21
      Imho it's about re-writing the way we are portrayed
Apr 29th 2015

Apr 29th 2015
17
      Are these questions leading to somewhere or are you curious?
Apr 29th 2015
18
           I'm just trying to create an alternative dialog to think differently
Apr 29th 2015
23
                i think it's gotten us somewhere.
Apr 29th 2015
27
                Do you think everyone is using Code languge
Apr 29th 2015

Apr 29th 2015

                     You know it's easy to act like you're above everyone -
Apr 29th 2015
