Why white people can’t say "N"

If you see a person hurt in need, if you see a woman being raped. Your natural reaction is to want to help. So to overcome that, you need to make people, not see them as humans. You need to make them view the group as less than human nothing but animals. Slave traders used the label of "N". So that when you looked at them you didn’t see another person you saw a "N" an animal. Not a human like you and me. You have to remember that at that time how people viewed people who did not “Know God”. They were thought of is heathens, savages that needed to be saved. So when a Europeans calls Africans "N" they were really calling them animals something less than a man. Like an undomesticated animal that needs to be tamed or a beast of burden that needed its sprit broken. Then you pass that reasoning down from generation to generation and you have a group fighting for their birth right. Men and women fighting to be viewed as men and women as humans, think of it a president was shot in the head because he tried to hold his country to its own creed “That all men are created equal.” Now if you’re thinking to yourself how anyone could fall for this. Think of this if a lie makes you feel better about yourself you tend to accept it. Still don’t believe I have 7 words for you “Does this make my butt look bigger?” They accept that "N"s were lesser because it made them greater. Now by no means was this time the start of slaves and master but this was a change in the relationship between the two. In ancient time slavery was not looked down on in fact many people would sale themselves into slavery to pay off a debt but after it was paid off he was free to go unless he wanted to stay out of love of his master and the he was treated when he was in his service. Now on the flip side of it black people would call each other "N" as badge of honor as to say they thought we were animals but we showed them. As if they really had anything to prove but as I said for generations this type of thinking has gone on so most believe as they were told cause that’s all they had known. As blacks became more educated they learn of their roots in Africa and how it is the home land of mankind, the starting point of all human life. They started calling themselves Black and Proud! The comedian Richard Pryor came to this conclusion on a trip there, Malcolm X came to a similar one on his pilgrimage to Mecca seeing blacks and whites as brothers of the same family. So why can’t white people call black people "N" because there are no "N"s.
