Most Hispanics who have immigrated to the States are black. Why do black people not get that? Hispanic is not a race. FYI they come in different skin tones just like black people. Some are light others are brown, some are darker brown and others have fair skin.
Yet we say it. Make it make sense. If it’s derogatory, why would we use it against our selves? Oh. We “took the word.” Like that’s some kind of flex. Dumbest sh*t I’ve ever heard. Sounds more like low self image and an obsession with their word. No wonder other cultures think we’re pathetic.
0:59 YES IT IS. Why do black folks always try to ignore the anti-blackness from the so called "afro" latinos. He sound dumb af
Wich n word
I'm a GenXer from the South and I've never come across Hispanics or other non-blacks that were comfortable enough to use the n-word around blacks. I think that's something that primarily happens in New York where the black population is immigrant and less conscious.
We been promoting that word as black people for decades. I dont say it and I check others that do but at this point its apart of society. Whatever we promote will become what everyone does.
If Hip Hop culture has programmed Black people to act like we're the scum of the earth, you don't think it's working on other races and cultures too, especially other cultures who feel they're actually apart of Hip Hop like Hispanics?
In LA you’ll see Hispanics wearing Kobe Bryant jerseys, talking using Black street slang, driving a Catty and slapping Too Short.. Then turn around and say he don’t like Blacks 🤣🤣💯
we have allowed it for to long its past time, this one we can fix until we stop it period
Weakness tjays what it is. Lets be honest weak spineless cwrd behavior.
Thats our fault!!! We allowed culture vultures in our mix, and now its out of control. I will quickly correct you ONE time!!!
You need to teach your own to stop saying ot or else Noone will stop saying it 💯 to many black people say it. You don't like it then stop saying it to your selves and you probably get other people to say it. Dummies you all bunch of clowns 🤡
I don't patronize people who use the N-word. So, no I don't listen to rap music or most Black comedians.
Some of them claim they white on the sences and alot of hispanics are anti African Descent culture.
So you should checkem if they try it. It's only because we allow it that people think they have the privilege to say it.
Never been okay , I've been checking them for years !
Stay safe
Jay Worthy is Indian?? Wow, I’ve never seen him. That’s disappointing.
Because we do what we want.
I work with the Latino children, and their children say it to the black children. One Latino child I had him read all the racial slurs for all the races walking the earth. Then I asked him how he would feel if I called him the slurs for Latino people. Another latine child told me since he was latino, he could say the n word to me. He kept repeating it. I seen him with his father one day and told his father what he said and started calling the father the their slurs as i spoke to him. The child stayed away from me since that day. Neither one of these children did not say the n word to me with that since. People feel it's ok to call us the n word but can't accept their slurs associated with their race. I personally will return the favor with no problem. Others know it upsets us. That's why they do it. Give them the same energy back, and it will stop.
Hell, young white people say that so much its crazy.
Not only that, they over use it. We dont even say it that damn much
Hispanics are our people, but we don’t know it, and they don’t either. Stop the division and come together as one people. We share the same bloodline- skin color and hair texture are not how God judges us. God deals with bloodline.
It's because a lot of Latinos (including the light skin/white passing ones) are actually black/part black. We need to stop thinking that light skin/white passing Latinos are not black/part black. That all being said, we ALL NEED TO STOP USING THE N-WORD.
When Mexicans, use the N-word just Reply back with 💦 backssssssssssss and see how much they like that word
I agree with the Man in this dialogue
Look we got to gatekeep . This is what happens when ppl invite to many non black people to the cookout or into our spaces . We got to be strict
I don't hang out with Hispanics that use the N-word.
When we say it to eachother its obvious we are being sarcastic brcause we are black but when you say it we dont know your true intentions are so just dont use it. The black giving the passes need to go around them and casually say wetbk or spc and see what they say
When other says this word it is NOT a term of endearment. We should NEVER use it either. It's steeped in hate, racism and pain for us. Why reclaim that?! The younger generation, 90s and beyond are lost giving all these passes and invites to the cookout, they don't know their history. They're the main ones doing this mess.
The White Media/entertainment engineered the use of that word. The higher ups of the early 90's met with rappers and asked them to start asking them to push disparaging messages in their music to help them brainwash us. Now here we are decades later and see the impact of it. The use of that word should have NEVER been embraced by our community. Several decades later the others are given a pass to use it because they listen to rap. They say it more than we do (aside from rappers )at this point, its disgusting. Revoke the passes from our community and our business, check anyone using that word including the rappers and things will change. I hate that word, never used it and HATE when others use it.
-Of all of the derogatory words for different races/ethnic groups/other groups that you used to hear a lot of but don't don't hear anymore, why is the n word STILL used? Whites used to call all of these groups Their bad names: Irish=M-cks, Italians=W-ps, Hispanics=Sp-cs, Chinese=Ch-nks, Jewish=K-kes, ,,even gays=f-gs. And out of all of these names the only name you still hear to this day is for blacks=N-ggers or N-gga. I'd like to know WHYYY?! Especially why blacks still use the word used to lower their morale?
its because the other side always wants to do whatever we do and think its cool. they're followers. they dont know any better.🤷🏾♂️
cuz blacks allowed them to, taught them to, and don't snatch them when they use it.
Because they hear us use it and think to fit in and be accepted it's ok
Im still trying to figure out how blacks are the only race of people that took their derogatory slur and start using it as a slang word. Then get mad when others say it.🤔
Because they love the colonizers! They even want to be like the whyte colonizers! I dont use the word! And I dont let anyone use it around me!
The Hispanic people who use the word are looked down by others. But we definitely don’t associate with negroids or trying to be like them. There’s no benefit from it.
Because our have no respect for for themselves I grew up in the days when you got hands on you or you were called a derogatory name right back.I don't think our young people even know that other~ nationality s also have racial slurs describing them.
I hope we EVENTUALLY come to our senses.
There is NO BLACK/BROWN alliance and if you disagree with them they may very well get 5 or 6 of their homies and confront you. I know them all too well.
Northern blacks allow this to happen. This doesn't fly in the south and not much in the west.
Some of us like riddick 😮 we not with the rest of them….we not going 😮
We shouldn't use the word around us.
They are our family
Everything you said is true! I hate it so bad when we use the n word and refer to women as bitches and hoes towards each other. So sad☹️☹️☹️☹️
“
NEVER LET OUTSIDERS KNOW YOUR FAMILY BUSINESS “ IT APPLIES TO RACE ALSO.. GOING FORWARD DONT USE IT AND CHECK OTHERS WHEN THEY DO, FRIENDS OR NOT.INSULATE OURSELVES AGAINST OUTSIDERS. WE HAVE NO FRIENDS. STAY ON CODE..
I'm 58 and I'm with you sister!
Slavery wasn't just in the United States. The numbers say out of the 12 million documented slaves taken from Africa, 10 to 11 million were brought to South and Central America.
Yes, Demetra! Not our word.
