Language Apartheid: Only Blacks Can Say “nigger”

By Eowyn @DrEowyn

When had America allowed the Left to put chains around the First Amendment by being our Language Police?

It’s verboten for heterosexuals to use “queer” or “homo” or any word other than the approved “gay” to refer to homosexuals, but homosexuals can call themselves “queer.”

Another example of Liberal Tyranny: It’s racist for non-blacks to call blacks “nigger,” but it’s perfectly OK for blacks to use the word “nigger.”

Reacting to the Charleston church shooting, Obama used the n-word in an interview with podcaster Marc Maron on June 22, 2015. Obama said:

The legacy of slavery, Jim Crow, discrimination in almost every institution of our lives, you know, that casts a long shadow, and that’s still part of our DNA…. Racism, we are not cured of it, clearly. And it’s not just a matter of it not being polite to say nigger in public. That’s not the measure of whether racism still exists or not. It’s not just a matter of overt discrimination. Societies don’t, overnight, completely erase everything that happened 200 to 300 years prior.

Obama’s use of the n-word, in turn, prompted black Cornel West, who is a prominent member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and Professor of Philosophy and Christian Practice at the Union Theological Seminary in New York City, to call Obama the first “niggerized” president in an appearance on CNN yesterday (June 22, 2015).

Note: Formerly called the Socialist Party of America, Democratic Socialists of America is Marxist, anti-capitalist, and a member of the Socialist International.

West said:

“Too many black people are niggerized. I would say the first black president has become the first niggerized black president.

A niggerized black person is a black person who is afraid and scared and intimidated when it comes to putting a spotlight on white supremacy and fighting against white supremacy. So when many of us said we have to fight against racism, what were we told? ‘No, he can’t deal with racism because he has other issues, political calculations. He’s the president of all America, not just black America.’ We know he’s president of all America but white supremacy is American as cherry pie.”
