I find it so offensive. I hate that today's black youth have been brainwashed to believe that calling another "*****" is a show of respect! Our deceased civil rights leaders must be rolling over in their graves. We cannot blame this phenomenon on anyone but ourselves.

I understand the theory - that by taking back the word, you take the sting out of it - but i cannot think of an uglier word. Ultimately, even in jest, i don't think there is any reason to use this word as it continues to degrade, separate and devalue our young people. If i had a magic eraser, i would erase this word from the world today. I am white - but I wish i were African.

I agree and this is just a way of lowering ourselves. I can recall some years in the past that Richard Pryor, the comedian who used the word constantly, went on a trip to Africa. After that trip he vowed to never use that word again.
