Racism?

    Why has the “N-Word” and the “Q-Word” come back? In the past, these words were seen as hurtful and racist; however, this is no longer the case for many.  Lots of people now, especially teens are using these words more frequently as slag and often they are used to joke around between groups of friends.  Many of which also don’t know what these words originally meant. So then where does the line get drawn with this? There are some African Americans that wouldn’t be bothered by these words, but there many more that would be. The world is trying to become more multicultural and unified so why this new up rise in hateful words from the past? No one should feel idolized because of how they look, especially based on something one can’t change. One rarely sees ‘white’ people being picked on by those of another culture because they are seen as a higher class; however that is not the case. Many people of different cultures are just as good as any ‘white’ people out there some just have different talents or show the talents in a different way. Whether ‘white’ or ‘black’, people are people so it shouldn’t matter where you come from, you should still be treated as an equal.
