It is wrong for people of other races. But I don't think you should use that word commonly amongst yuour friends, when you know it is not typical off yopur own, as you got it off tv i.e. the way that the USAs culture reaches us, because of the media. Why should white people want to use that word anyway? If a white person EVER tried to use that with me on ANY type of terms.. friendly (stupid idiots) or racist, they'll see what they get. Any white person that doesn't know why THEY in particular shouldn't use that word, is seriously stupid and it is obvious that by many blacks it has been turned into a term of 'fraternity' between eachother, by other blacks, a reason to divide blacks andlook down on other blacks who do bad things, either way let's forget those type of blacks, coz they are probably just bountys and are embarrassin anyway.

To be honest, on this whole issue of white people trying to have 'street cred' ( without being white trash) it will never happen. LOL. Blacks lead lifetimes of assimilating into white's communities/environments. We are experts at it...especially if we want to be.. whereas they... because they expect us to do this... always.

To be honest with you, when I look back on any friendships with white people... I just cringe... because... it wasn't a 'friendship as such... it was just tolerance. Pure tolerance. But I was just too nice to admit it, even to myself... Coz like I said, brain washed into eurocentric thinking... just fit in...if youa re not like them... then you are?... Too friendly to admit how they bored me and annoyed me and disgusted me and got on my nerves and what an absolute sense of 'emancipation' I felt when I started making 'my own choices' sense. oh it was BEAUTIFUL. I remember it like my first Christmas. LOL.
