I am a big fan of whoopie, and side with what she says 9 out of 10 times. But I do think it was ignorant of her to say we don’t live in the same world. Although you would never hear me say the “nword,” we have evolved alot since slavery and integration in America. My African American boss would tell you that !!

I can totally understand were Elizabeth is coming from… how do you say its okay for some people to say but not others…OKAY how double standard is that???

Just give it a rest white people can never win because history is all our fault.

Elizabeth is a strong willed woman. She believes that what she’s saying has solid merit, and everyone should pay homage to it.

Now, with all that said, an issue like this one isn’t something on which Elizabeth can have the last word…particularly in a convo with Whoopi! Whoopi lives this culture; Elizabeth observes it.

So, when all is said and done, the problem is us Black folks using the word. There’s no “double standard” issue. If I heard the n-word used in jest by my family, then it’s “acceptable” for me to hear it and use it with Black folks. Once Black culture rejects the word as a whole (not just the NAACP), then it’ll truly be “dead”.

While I don’t regard Elizabeth as a great mouthpiece for the conservatives, she was right with her comments. The “what should we teach our children?” was brilliant. Maybe Whoopie needs to understand that one the reasons there continues to be a divide in this country is because of the double standard that exists among blacks.
