I am black and I take offense to anyone saying my nizzle, be that person black, white, mixed, whatever. I do understand that within our race we have tried to take the power from people who used the "n" word to degrade us by using it ourselves as slang.....and now evolving it to "my nizzle". my nizzle= my nigga, so it is offensive. not because african americans want something to complain about , but because less than 50 years ago african americans were still being commonly tormented with these words....we have living grandparents who experienced this and are still traumatized by it. My grandmother picke cotton on a plantation....so this is a part of our not=sodistant past. Why say these words and fuel this type of ignorance...black or white. try to be sympathetic to peoples pain over our (yours and mine) history. Aren't you sympathetic to holocaust victums and there families? how is this any different???? Hello,
