It all started when a snapchat video of a sorority sister group from the University of North Hampshire, emerged. They were vybing to the 2005 hit song 'Gold digger' by Kanye West, and belted out the line 'I ain't saying she's a gold digger; but she ain't messing with no broke 'N****r'. This caused a mini uproar and Pier's decided to address the issue in a Daily Mail article of his own.
His main points were if Black people can write songs using the N-word, white people should be allowed to sing it.
Whilst this is a true argument - the million dollar question remains.. why do white people want to say the N-word so bad? Why should or do they feel comfortable saying it?
The history attached to the word is well known. It was a derogatory term used to insult person's of African, Carribean and African-American descent. Although black people have reclaimed the word, and it is now a sign of power and brotherhood; white people do not get to decided whether or not they should still be using it in conversation. Because of its history, white people are not permitted and neither do they have a say in such issues as it has nothing to do with them.
Thanks for reading guys !
