in this post I'm going to summarize this article i read it was saying how that the birth of the n-word is totally different from the n-word today and kurtis blow was saying how he wanted to have a mock funeral for the word because it is getting out of hand how our generation uses it and other races are starting to use it like it's a good word to say but at the same time it still has that pain to to because you cant get rid of the pain of the word he also says that it's not just the n-word that needs to disappear and that they should stand up and make a change to all the entertainment to where they can have a positive thing to stereo type instead of curse words

research question

Why and how does it affect our friendships?

topics and goals

this topic is about does language affect who our friends are? I say yes, because at my school it is fifty percent white fifty black and i only see the whites hanging out with only the whites and the blacks with the blacks and i was wondering if that was because of the way our language is towards each other and i know that the blacks use the word nigga and the whites don't say it at all so I'm thinking that's it because a long time ago they were raised to call us niiga so now that racism is over they have problems with saying it because they feel its going to affend us but it doesn't affend me because i call my brother and peers nigga all the time but this is not just about the word nigga its about all words slang and all blacks tend to curse or be loud and i feel thats a reason why the don't come around us as much i cant really say much about the whites because I'm in this situation now
