ESPN to Air ‘Outside the Lines’ Special Report on ‘The N-Word’ Sunday...

[Meta_Conscious]

Rappers get too much publicity as representatives of black ppl... That ain't right...

 

[Matt-]

How original

 

[bignorm]

was gonna watch until Tirico said Common was narrating.

This is wack as fuck, and shouldn't be on tv.

I'm tired of whites trying to understand our culture.

You cant understand, it aint in you to.

 

[atribecalledgabi]

The fuck..

This will go how every other mainstream discussion on nigga goes.

-Background on black history in America

-older black folks' take on the word v. younger black folks' take

-some white person/people not understanding the difference between when we say it and when they say it; cue Riley Cooper and Richie incognito

-some white person who says it's an ugly word and nobody should say it

How many times a "debate" on this shit gonna come up? Black people can say nigga If they choose to; other races can't. End of story. Ain't shit to understand further.

[blackrain]

I hate the "rap music made people say nigga more" as if they weren't saying nigga before rhyming words in 16 bars came along

 

[bigev240]

Jason need to shut up and let Common talk.

Why is it so damn hard for people to differ content and intent. You can tell when someone uses it in a hateful way
