Burying the "N" Word

Posted by DRomeo on Tuesday, July 31, 10:50 PM

Just the other day, the NAACP ceremoniously buried the "N" word.

From CBSnews.com:

"There was no mourning at this funeral.

Hundreds of onlookers cheered Monday afternoon as the NAACP put to rest a long-standing symbol of racism by holding a public burial for the N-word during its annual convention in Detroit.

"Today we're not just burying the N-word, we're taking it out of our spirit," said Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. "We gather burying all the things that go with the N-word. We have to bury the pimps and the hos that go with it."

"Die N-word, and we don't want to see you round here no more."

What do you think about this?  What do you think about the "N" word?  Do you use the word?
