They talk about how music is one of the bigest thing that influences the fact that other people with say the n word and the black man says that he thinks more of white people and the fact they should be above saying that word. This is shown in the book because everyone that was around huck in the south would use the n word and it was ok to say it so they thought but in reality it was a realy negative and derogatory word to be using, but they didn't think that way about the word. Even when the book uses it I Know that they use it as a describing word but I still think that it shouldn't be said in any way shape or form unless you as the writer are black and know were the word comes from and understand how your ansesters were treated and how when they use it they are taking back the word because some white people today will say it and just be like oh I herd it in the song or its in the song so I can say it or some people use it to be rude but no matter if you are saying it to be rude or saying it because it is in a song if you yourself arnt a black person you should not be using the word at all.
