You still have alot to learn..
Quote From: manofgoodsI really think that people whoever uses the N-word (no matter what race you are) is really disgraceful & it disrespects African-Americans. Rappers, etc., shouldn't even use the N-word in the first place in their music lyrics. That's why whenever I listen to rap, etc., I usually go for the Edited versions of it, whatever it comes from buying CD's, or downloads. Plus we wonder why kids are saying things that they shouldn't be saying. It's 2008 now, soon to be 2009.
And I'm a African-American man myself (I'm only 26 years of age). It's time for this world to grow up, & quit living in the past. Young brother , young brother, though your thoughts are wonderful and the american you wish to live in so many us dream about, you must face the facts. Our past must never be forgotten and please never forget. The blood that was shed so that you could even be given the right to speak as you have in this forum. The next time your near the ocean or walking on a beach listen to the crys of our ancestors. They died so that we could have a opportunity to live. They sacraficed sohat we wouldn't have too. Yet, we still aren't respected for the content of our character as MLK said. The owrld needs to grow up true. But, they must come to grips with our struggles and how they perpetuate them daily. Perhaps you live in an area where you don't see what I see daily. I suggest you stay there because there are some of us that still having it rough.
