Race row erupts at Rutgers after white student uses N-word in quote
The first year student - a woman who has not been named - had used the slur during Professor Vera Bergelson's virtual office hours in October last year. That sparked a petition over its use.www.dailymail.co.uk
Not true. I don’t care who says what but I know people who do care.
You really think this is a free nation?
Color me shocked
Growing up in the south, in the 60s, I said it almost as often as rap artists do today... almost. That was a time where real racism existed and it was UGLY. The crying and complaining today would make MLK ashamed of the youth who engage in it.
Today I had to spend time among a group of coworkers listening to rap noise. Of course every other word n1gger. The hypocrisy of the African race knows no bounds
Fine by Me, as long as those who think they have a right to impose consequences don't mind the consequences of those actions.
But back in the 60's -- when you were saying the n-word daily...you hated MLK and called him a communist trouble maker...Color me shocked
FTR, most of the people I know today would disassociate themselves, even from family, that used the word in a hateful or demeaning way.
That said, it is a personal CHOICE. No one tells me which words or expressions are "illegal". As for consequences, life is full of them. Like the saying goes - you pays your money and you takes your chances.
No there are consequences because people like you want to figure out ways to use that word. Perhaps she should not have used that word in a quotes or maybe she should have warned that offensove language was part of the quote. But its funny how we don't ever see stories where kids of color are using white racial slurs. We don't feel like we have the right to call whites micks, degos, wops, guineas, limeys, kikes and pollacks just because it's in a passage we are quoting. Whites like that and you wannabes have this belief that you are entitled. The word didn't have to be used.
