Full Transcript for The N word

whole different meaning to the word. That's a whole different connotation to the word. Like you can use the words Positively or negatively. It's the whole context behind the meaning of when you use the word, when you use the word and how you use the word. It's the same thing with that word, man. So now black people are trying to get upset because a person who grew up With and around black people speak like black people. You can't get mad at that. That's the environment they grew up in and that's how they talk. It's just it just is what it is. 'Cause you got more pigmentation in your skin than this person. You think Like some of the things Fed Joe said's accurate. Some of the things of course ain't. Like if a person grow up and he's doing more stuff than you How do you have all this, all of a sudden, this right, this preconceived right to say the N-word, but a person who is out there doing more than you And it ain't about the negative the in the street the street the street people saying like I'm from the streets, I can use these words because I'm from the street. It about that. Right? Cause y'all wrong too. Because some some of y'all from the street. Y'all act like y'all can use the word. I'm from the street. So I can say like Fat Joe, that's why I say he I'm from the street. I did more street stuff than most of the people in my neighborhood, so I can say the word. That don't even make sense. Just cause you call yourself a street person, who street people the The onus of the word. Like no nobody says that if a person is more legit in the streets, he can call himself and he can delegate who's called the N-word, and nobody said that either, right? So I think black people as a whole should stop trying to worry about who uses that word and who doesn't use that word. Why are you allowing Some people to use a word directed at you or towards you or not to make you get bent out of shape. That's a weakness. And people can use your weaknesses against you once they know them. word has absolutely no power to me today. When the world was different, it did. I can totally understand why it did. But today, that world has no power me. A police can pull me over and And say, you know why I stopped you? And I'd be like, Nope. he can be like, because you are N-word. You know what I say? I figured like ain't gonna hurt me. It ain't gonna make me get out of car character. It ain't gonna do nothing to me. Right? I be at a bar. White dude with his boy can be like Coming to our bar now. Unless and he unless he's directing his energy to me specifically. I don't care about that. Like 'Cause I can be like, Yeah, I feel the same way. Enners like you. know what I'm saying? Like, unless somebody is directing negative energy towards me specifically, they don't gotta call me that word. They can call me any word. A a B, a F. A G they can call me any word that they feel is disrespectful. With regard of being dis with the attempt of being disrespectful to me, and I'ma take it as such. I'ma take it as disrespect. Like like Kevin H said, use too many roads, and because I don't them, I'ma take them as disrespect. So watch your mouth and help me with the cell. know, so I'm not gonna take no type of disrespect towards me or pe my the people with me. And that's from anybody. I don't care what word you use, but I'm not taking that word. As meaning you're talking about me. Unless you're talking about me. Fat Joe saying a word, I don't care. Why would I care about that? I do not care. If a white boy single along to a rap, blah, blah, blah, and he's saying the N-word with the song. I'm supposed to be like, he racist cause he's singing along with a rap song that's saying the word. That that don't even make no kind of sense. Like when I was younger in and what's the word? More naive? It bother me when like white people sing along and they throw that word. But now I I mean, what are supposed to say? Like 'Cause the same people who say stuff like that, they feel like they can say other words to other people. that put them down. And then what what will be the excuse? Well, your people haven't been through what my people have been through, yada, A B C one two, three, blah blah blah, right? I get you. I hear you. That bothers me too. You know why? Because you don't know what your people have been through. just use it when it's convenient. You don't know what your people have been through. Can you tell me, can you name some of your people? who have been enslaved, like from your family. Okay, let's broaden the scope then. I won't even have to put you under a microscope like that. Can you name some can you name for me some of the black towns that have progressed? And grew and became really big, wealthy. Don't just give me Tulsa Tosa. Don't just give me that. If you haven't done the history your own people, don't try to use that as a scapegoat. Don't try to use black people as a scapegoat, even though you're black. Don't try to say, my blah, blah, blah, blah. If you haven't even done the history on your people, and all you want to do is say, My people been through so much. If you really gave a shit about that, you would have done your homework and you would have done some history on your people and what you what they've been through. Do you know how they got here through the Atlantic tra slave trade? Do know how many through the Bering Straits? Do you know about Lucy and Lucia? Do you know about like If you haven't done your history, stop saying that. Stop trying to be conveniently upset about other people saying something that you're saying, my people have been through this and that. Like, do your research, do your homework, and then you can start saying, My people, this and that. Then you'll you'll be legit. But until you do your homework on your own history, how can you expect anybody to respect? You talking about what your people have been through if you haven't even done the homework or the history what your people have been through.

Like, knock it off, man. That's why people think you have a victim mentality. Because only when something Can be construed as negative, do you bring up your people and what they've been through, but you don't go no further than that. You can't even educate people. on what your people really have been through. All you talk about is the slavery. So you're just as much of a victim As they're trying to say you are, because all you know your people for, and I'm talking about black people, my people, all you know your people for is slavery. All black people in America, all black Americans did not come from slavery. You bought that. Lock stock and barrel, you bought that. There are some native, lot ⁓ natives And when I say native, I mean they are black. You bought that you and all black people were brought over here on ships and in slavery. You bought that is what you're saying. You don't understand, you don't know that we were of the first people to inhabit the Americas. Brazil, the oldest bones in Brazil, the Americas, is from a young woman. You don't even know that. You accept that your ancestors were brought over here in ships, in chain, enslaved. That means you don't know your own history, and you're accepting that your ancestors were were called the N word and were in chains and enslaved. Stop accepting what people said to you, man. Do your research. yourself. And once you do that, people won't be able to hurt you with words anymore like that word. They tell you your ancestors were enslaved. They don't tell you that your ancestors were here before anyone else. So you just running with the slavery stuff. Make yourself better than that, because you are better than that. Understand that look at look around at everything, man. Look around at the Westerners, the cowboys. They make them look white. Right? You don't know that your ancestors were some of the first cowboys. Look around the Bering Straits. They make them look Asian. Now they look more white than anything. Right? Look at all the people calling themselves Native American. A lot of them just look white. They make you believe that agents came when the the the the the over the the ice bridge and they came here first. Anybody but you and your people. Think about that, man. They burned your history down. They found bones that they that were proven to be from people from Africa, that were here. The oldest people, oldest bones they ever found, they were Africans. Research, read, understand who you are, not who people tell you you It's out there. The information is out there, man. So that's why it doesn't bother me Like fat joking say he can use the N-word. I don't ⁓ can use it. White people didn't make it up, they just didn't know how to pronounce the real words. So it wasn't even a word that they made up. They mispronounced the word and then we repurpose the word. Sure. So I just wanted to do that, man. I just wanted to educate people a little bit. And tell people to stop being followers, man. You gotta start doing your own research. Jackal Baby for Jackal Baby TV and the Eli Frequency Podcast.
