[QUOTE="excat, post: 2229325, member: 29449"] I didn't understand this either, and I've asked one of my black friends about it before....apparently it's something with the spelling and how THEY pronounce it.... it's saying it with the A on the end, not er. I guess it's not racist if you say it with the a....and I just thought they were being too lazy to say a word correctly. Ebonics...guess you can't understand unless you grow up around it. Their culture does need to show more self worth though. I do think that a lot of racism is dead, as it needs to be. Then again, it's hard for racism to stay dead when you depict such a negative image of yourself. [/QUOTE]
