Because a white person will never know how it feels to be black. Because there is still racism in the world. Because when a white person says it, they are either being racist, or they are assuming they have the experience to use the word. If you’re the only white person around your group of all-black friends who you are very tight with, I think it’s acceptable. If you are a person of color who has experienced being a so-called ‘minority’ and the baggage that comes with, I think it’s acceptable. But if you grew up in white suburbia or white middle America and think it’s cool because you like Snoop Dogg, it’s just not quite right. I would like to know from other readers when they think it is acceptable.
