The Arizona African American Republican Committee is asking people to sign a petition to end the use of the N-word in all discourse, public and private. They are looking for 1000 signatures. Let's get 'em more!
Let’s start with rap music.
Their declaration covers the whole panoply of uses, including that.
Are they not going to speak Spanish!
>>Let’s start with rap music.<<
The great irony here is that if it were not for Gangsta Rap, Hip Hop would not have the dominant place it does in music and advertising and the black community would have a whole lot less money.
Morales and values should take care of this, not totalitarian, dictatorial priciple.
They’re asking private individuals to support a change in behavior. What in the world does that have to do with the First Amendment?

Huckleberry Finn?
The organization is race-based....and therefore inherently racist. How about a petition to disband all race-based committees and organizations.

It's an issue the United Negro College Fund is addressing today … sort of. The 64-year-old organization isn't officially removing "Negro" from its name but rather is unveiling a new branding effort that will focus on the acronym "UNCF." A new logo was unveiled today and the group is refocusing attention to the group's universal catchphrase, "A Mind Is a Terrible Thing to Waste." ( ... ) By refocusing attention to the acronym, the UNCF follows the lead of the American Association of Retired Persons, which in 1999 legally changed its name to AARP to reflect that its focus... |

I notice that HONKY and WHITEY did not make the list???? One of those things that make you go Hmmmmm.
Not to worry, as it is selectively used, and then only targeted to a certain race, gender, and political persuasion.
Clear now? ;)
