There are those who throw rocks of racism and there are those
who get hit by rocks of racism. It is not right to condition those being hit by
the rocks to pretend that getting hit doesn’t hurt.

the n-word will not benefit those who are labeled by it. We must encourage
respect and not accept the disrespect inherent in the use of the n-word.
In 1994, Attorney Roy Miller became the first and only person to succeed at having the n-word deleted from a major dictionary. Attorney Miller went, by invitation, and joined arguments for passage of the Baltimore and New York City resolutions discouraging n-word usage.
