The N Word


When Riley Cooper, Eagle’s wide receiver, said the N word, he was angry. It just goes to show you that the N word is not a good word to say. The word is a derogatory term. It is used historically against a group of people as a racial slur. No one should be using this word. Rappers and comedians who say the word should stop and stop influencing young people to say the word. The N word is not a jovial word. It is not meant to be used casually in greeting as in “Hey my ‘N’ word.” “Those who don't know history are destined to repeat it,” Edmund Burke. Let’s put an end to the N word.

Is Riley Cooper being treated differently than Paula Deen for using the same word? The big difference is that he was not planning a “Plantation Wedding.”
