Whew! My mind is blown and my heart is HEAVY.

BUT:
Do yall remember A Soilders Story? Member' that part where Adolf ?'s character, the sargent that was killed, goes to the cell of the young man that is incarcerated? He says to him that "the Negro race can't afford niggas like you anymore...." Do yall remember that?

That was a turning point for me and my use of the word. At that point it signified just that - people of color that our race of people can't afford.

Talk with me, My Conscious Brahs and Sistahs!
