Ta-Nehisi Coates has an incredibly clear explanation for why white people shouldn’t use the n-word
He said that white people could learn something from not being able to use the word.
It’s a question that comes up again and again in discussions of race: Why can’t white people use the n-word, even as many black people use it, particularly in rap songs and other media?
Ta-Nehisi Coates, a writer at the Atlantic and author of We Were Eight Years in Power, has perhaps the best explanation I have ever heard on the topic, given during an event last month at Evanston Township High School in Illinois.
