Kill The N-Word (.com) is an information center that provides music and video media detailing the status of the N-Word in today’s society. Content on this site also reviews how modern-day use of the N-Word has effectively spread globally; becoming a part of comfortable, everyday speech for all. Additionally, Kill The N-Word (.com) seeks to produce material that sheds light on the implications of the way this word is used today and the implications of how effectively this word has spread.

The N-Word (NIGGER/NIGGA) is the most controversial word in the English language.  However, the N-Word has effectively transcended English. When you travel internationally, people in Europe, Asia and even Africa can be heard casually using the N-Word in their everyday speech; because they’ve heard Black Americans using it so freely and frequently in popular songs, TV and movies. Because of the careless and irresponsible use of the N-Word in music, TV movies (and public spaces on social media) the word NIGGA has become part of pop culture and it has become trendy for everyone to say and use. It needs to be said that – we currently live in an era where Black America is the biggest purveyor, facilitator, proliferator and spreader of the N-Word on the planet. The way that we (as Black people) use the N-Word is NOT harmless, its NOT free and there are costs. Lets finally KILL THE N-WORD.

11 TRUTHS ABOUT THE N-WORD (NIGGER/NIGGA)

1. People who are not Black should NOT being using the N-Word; regardless of what they hear or see. People who are NOT Black should respect what the N-Word actually means and respect that this word directly applies to a race of people that they do not belong to – Ultimately, NOBODY should be saying the word (regardless of skin color) because of what it means and because of what it represents.
2. When Black people use the N-Word (especially in the Public Space in Music, TV, Movies and Social Media Platforms) we insult our own Black history and our legacy as a people. The way we use the N-Word permanently distorts our own black history – as the way that we use it makes the world misunderstand and forget the N-Word’s real meaning – Our excessive use of it in the public space tells the world that there’s absolutely nothing wrong with the N-Word after all. if the people who are the historical target of the N-Word are freely using it, then how could it possibly be bad?
3. When Black people use the N-Word (especially in the Public Space in Music, TV, Movies and Social Media Platforms) we’re affecting our image as a race – we are further diminishing our ability to be taken seriously as a people – It distorts our respect and our credibility as a people. when we as Black people call ourselves and refer to each other as the N-Word in the public space – this is significant when a group of people is fighting to be heard for rights and equality.
4. Black people do not OWN the N-Word. The truth is that the N-Word belongs to white supremacy –  WE as Black people simply BORROW the N-Word and CLAIM to own it – many Black people claim a license to use the N-Word with the belief that Black people have reclaimed the N-Word from white people (the race that enslaved Black people and branded Black people with the N-Word to strip away their identity, their significance and their humanity) – However, it’s not possible for Black people to “reclaim” something that they never owned in the first place. The N-Word never magically changed hands from white supremacy to black ownership – this is senseless delusion and systematic brainwashing that has convinced us as Black people to turn this word against ourselves and actually believe that doing so is OUR idea. What Black people are actually (and unknowingly) doing is helping to strengthen and distribute the N-Word for the same system of White oppression that initially used the word against them.
5. The double standard (the “we can say it, but they can’t”) that many Black people use with the N-Word simply doesn’t work – we as Black people made up these rules for the N-Word and no one else is playing by them but us. Black people can’t say that it’s not okay for Whites and other Non-Black people to say the N-Word and then fill every single public space with Black use of the N-Word. More specifically, we as Black people can’t fill our music, movies, television (and social media accounts) with the N-Word and put it out there to the world. but then say the world can’t say it; that doesn’t make any sense and it doesn’t work – it simply makes Blacks look foolish as a people.
6. The way the way that we use the N-Word as Black people does absolutely nothing to affect, change or heal the way that it has always been used against us by Whites.
7. There aren’t two versions of the N-Word; there’s not a Black N-Word and a White N-Word.
8. What the word means and what it represents does not change because it comes out of a black person’s mouth.
9. Black Americans are the only race of people who publicly refer to themselves by the racial slur that has been historically assigned to them –Doing this corrupts the black identity; WE are not the N-Word, so why did we start willingly accepting this label?
10. Casual use of the N-Word has no benefit for black people – the N-Word is not a prize, a trophy, strength or accomplishment for Blacks. Saying the N-Word is not a NEED; it’s a HABIT and habits can be broken.
11. Many Black people say that ending our use of the N-Word isn’t something to focus on, because there are so many greater issues – however, this is a terribly weak excuse and an unintelligent response that that shows the immaturity of the individual – choosing to stop saying a word takes up none of the time or effort that you can devote to solving the so-called greater issues. For example, exactly how does deciding not to say the N-Word anymore get in the way of all that you’re personally doing every day to combat poverty and inequality? The “greater issue” excuse doesn’t hold any weight; It’s either “you care” or “you don’t”. And If you don’t care, then you place more importance on saying what you want to say over the greater wellbeing of your people.
