And I'm all about it.
As a Black man, I get where my people are coming from when they say "stop using the 'n-word'", but cats won't think twice about terms like retard or faggot. Maybe they hold race closer to them than developmental disabilities, or sexual orientation, but you have to look at the whole picture... if we're truly striving for one human race, we have to show respect to all humans, not just those who look and speak like us.
Defeating racism is one step, but we as a nation, we as a people, we as one... we have a LONG way to go before we can break down those barriers that define us if we are truly to act like one united front.
Think on it.
Shouts to wifey for the heads up.
