I do not think this word should be allowed in this day and age even including African Americans because it was a term for slavery and not only is it very racist it is also insensitive and people saying this word not are plain ignorant

I think that black people should be able to use the "N" word freely. Reclaiming the word is so important, and by using it, they are taking the power that it has had over them and removing it/using it to work towards equalling the playing field. Say if someone who isn't black said the word in a culture where it is solely used by black people, there would be a higher chance that they would be corrected/educated and put in their place. If it isn't used at all though, any use of it could bring trauma to the forefront of a person's mind, create it, or just be really damaging in general. The least that we owe black people, after 400 years and counting of being dragged in the dirt, is power over this ONE thing. It's LESS than the least that people owe. The fact that non-black people can't give up the use of ONE word and accept that they shouldn't use it shows how incredibly privileged they are. If a person is upset about that, then just try going through what black people experience in their every day lives. I hope that people can recognize that Black people using it for themselves is exponentially more important than being hurt that you lost the use of one word.

No, it should not be used by musicians or regular people because it represents the darkest time of American history.

I feel like this word mostly depends on its usage. If it's used in a friendly way and not ending with "er" it's not as bad. When "er" is added, it's almost always meant for bad things. I don't use this word and I don't plan on using it, but I do think Artists could be able to use it as long as it's not hateful.

I think the "N" word shouldn't be use for common people. Only african americans. The word is used alot in rap songs and apart of African americans culture. I think african americans can use the "N" word to talk others african americans. The word has become part of african american music and culture today.

I personally feel like the word is used to be as an insult because of the way people use it or how they use it toward others, I feel like people should be able to say whatever they want and have their own opinion, but not as an insult or towards someone.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe it shouldn't be allowed to use freely due to the fact that people would probably take power over this word because of its definition and what it means the specific people.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think anyone should say it, it might be a common phrase, but it shouldn't be normalized. The word has so much hate behind it and I think even though it is used in everyday vocabulary for a lot of people, and it is sort of a part of their culture. It can have a lot of negative impact.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that if anyone is going to say the N word it should only be black people, however when it is in music I think that lets other people think their using of the word is justifiable. Unlike the other teens in the video, I think that the N word pass is ridiculous and as someone who has had it used to insult them, I can only ever see it as coming from a place of hate and racism.

# data[].attributes.body
No, I don't think the N word should be said freely because i think most people with different skin would not want to here it or be called it. The reason it should not be said is because it was used a a mean way to call someone of different color

I think that the n word is word that only African Americas should be ale to use considering its been a word they have been using for years but i believe white or other races shouldn't== use this word.

# data[].attributes.body
I think as long as the people are actually black and don't lie about it, they can say it. I don't believe anyone other than black people can say it (Asians, white, etc.) If the song is by a black person or the art is made by a black person and they use it, it is fine.

# data[].attributes.body
Personally, I strongly believe with the background of the word, I think it should be explicit. No matter what the "new" meaning is, nothing can conceal the true meaning of the N-Word Slur.

# data[].attributes.body
I do not think that this word should be used freely, since it is offensive to the African American culture.

# data[].attributes.headline
I believe that it shouldn't be said by anyone at all, as when black people say it, some people of other races sometimes believe that it is justified because the victims of it can say it. At the very bare minimum, I think that calling someone the n-word should forever be banned; both the friendly connotation or the derogatory connotation. However, you cannot force someone to do something.

In my opinion, the "N" word should be used and decided if it is a bad word or good word by black people. I think that anyone who is not black can not use it and should not have an opinion. It is not ours to decide.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that we should ease into not saying at all because i think that it's a very hurtful word.

# data[].attributes.headline
I think that whoever is black can say the N word whenever they want but if your white and touring going around and saying it then it would be bad

I don't think this word should be freely used by artists and common people because for some people it's a constant reminder of their past or their cultures past which is rough. Some people take it as a joke which really isn't okay because it's a serious thing. I agree with the man in the video that said that the n word is sort of a behavior and he thinks they should eradicate the behavior.

I do not think that everybody should be able to say it, but I think if a black person chooses to say it in a song or to someone, it should be ok for them

If someone hears someone else use it, they might use it too and it would lead to many people using it.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion I believe the word should never be used when it comes to music or in general many people find this word offensive because of the history of the word

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that people should acknowledge the history with that word and what it has represented in the past. If everyone has that in mind then I don't think people will use that so casually.

# data[].attributes.body
In my opinion, I think that not every person can just USE the word. I think that only black people can use the word if they want, but if they are any other race, they should not use the word under any circumstance.

# data[].attributes.body
No no no no. It should not be used at all, even if you don't think it doesn't matter doesn't mean you can't speak for the whole community. The black community has gone through so much suffering and discrimination. And you belittling and invalidating their experiences is beyond disgusting. It may be "just a word" to you but it may not be to people who have experienced racism. If you're not part of the community I don't think you have a word on it!

I do not think this word should be used so freely because I believe it's an offensive term.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like no one should use this word freely especially people who are famous because people look up to them. I dont understand why anyone would use it anyway

# data[].attributes.body
I think the N word should not be used by people who are not black.

# data[].attributes.body
I have always thought that regardless of what other people think or say I won't be one to say it. I don't like hearing the word, I don't listen to rap music so i have never experienced that word in any other context than a derogatory term. from when i first learned the word i was told not to use it so i haven't

# data[].attributes.headline
I think this word should not be freely used because this word had caused people so much pain back then, that it shouldn't be used as a popular term.

NO! this word is something that shouldn't be said, I feel like this word is something that's offensive and disgusting!

I don't care if black people say it in a non derogatory way but I don't think there is ever a circumstance where someone who isn't black should use it.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that the N word has a huge affect on people of color because of the oppression that they have faced with that word. I think that if you are of color, you can use the word if you wanted to do so but I think that other people who aren't black or mixed cannot use the word because it is very very offensive
