There is a "singled out" effect here because of the history of the word

"Nigger" Did somebody hit your forefathers on the back with a whip and

say "pick that cotton you damn peckerwood" I dont think so. Due to the

history and present use of the word, I think it is important that it be

redefined. Since there is a definition of other races in the

dictionary, send one that is more derogatory. I have to go to class, but

like the terminator, I'll be back.
