lollicat Posted October 16, 2010 Author Share Posted October 16, 2010 A Spanish word that translates as "black."I've met African Americans that were offended by the English word negro "nee-grow." I wonder if they saw this word negro "neh-grow," written on a paper or something, would they be offended?I don't understand why any of these words would be offensive.Why is Negro (English) offensive? Is the Spanish word offensive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lollicat Posted October 16, 2010 Author Share Posted October 16, 2010 And I understand this. What I don't get, however, is when I'm considered racist for saying in Spanish class that the shoes are black. >____> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kusy Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 Most likely the people who call you racist loli are crypto-racist because if saying black instantly makes them think about niggers and racism there's gotta be something there.Plus you are like 12-14 right? Kids in that age tend to say random things. Boys especialy. Girls that age are just racist ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harris6310 Posted October 16, 2010 Share Posted October 16, 2010 I have some black friends and they are more racists towards black people than any white person.
