I've never been called a nigger.

That's because I'm white.

But momma ALWAYS taught me to "try and walk a mile in another's shoes". I can honestly say I can't cross the finsh line of that quest when walking a mile as another's race is concerned. Especially if that race happens to be one of darker color. I can try and put myself in his/her's shoes...but I'll never fully grasp the impact of "the word".

BTW...doesn't saying "the N word" still say it? Geezzzzzzzzzzz...what year is this?

That being said..."The pen is mightier than the sword" means words hurt. Some words are less hurtful...some more...but none-the-less...they hurt. And really? What's the point? Words of hurt/hate will NEVER change the fact that we live in a diversified world and we are all different.


If it wasn't color it'd be something else because humans seem to need a reason to hate.

I want everyone to be like me...therefore I am??????????????????

I give up!
