Anyway, I was on my gossip sites (yeah I know I need to leave them alone) and they had an interveiw with her from Essence.com.
So her daddy is Black and indian and her momma is white. Now she states in the article that her momma (WHITE woman now) would walk around the house all the time and say nigga this and nigga that and then wouldnt allow her children to watch Roots because she was 'afraid that they (her and her brother) would start hating white folks"
Well hell i'd start hating white folks too especially if you as a WHITE woman (momma or not) was calling me and family and everybody else that i knew nigga and then tried to cover it up as oh it means ignorant...well wench (dang that was my daddy's favorite word lmao) if that's the case well why not show your half black/indian babies roots to see some of the reasons as to WHY the word nigga is so hated...or how it started to come about...why hide these babies heritage...just because u are white these children will ALWAYS be seen as black and there's nothing stopping that in this country.
THIS is why i do not believe in interracial marriages and especially having interracial children (and to those on the forum that are interracial...no offense to y'all I know that you had no choice in the matter...)

I read that article and you totally twisted that story.
1.) She actually said her mother was brought up AROUND African people all her life. So, like anyone raised around a perticuilar culture all there lives they pick up and act as the people they are around. NOT to say that it was right to use the word but I SERIOUSLY doubt that it was meant to be hurtful more like emulating what she saw/heard. Her being born white she's born with a natural ignorance, she won't understand the shock we/some of us get hearing that word from a caucasion person. It also seems as if everyone uses and didn't mine if she used it either. I gurantee KE-KE wasn't too offended as it may seem and can also can bet money they've exchange the word back as so-called "Endearment". Trust i seen this before, where a white was born raised around Africans and they accept him/her using the word in endearment.
HERE'S WHAT SHE SAID
K.W.:
My mom was raised around African-American people all her life. She can cornrow and everything. All she knows is the African-American way of living, because her stepfather was Black and she was raised by his family. She will use the N-word like it’s going out of style. I say, “Mama you can’t just go around using the N-word,” and she’s like, “I don’t give a damn. I say what I want to say.
N---a ain’t no color, it’s an ignorant person.”
2.) they didn't need a movie to know that the word started out to be/or is negative, that's obvious. This lady (her mother) was not racist just ignorant as the BLACK people she grew up around, period.
