                               racial hatred and bigotry. Many in the African American ethic
                               group continue to refer to themselves and other New Afrikans
                               as niggers (niggas). This is a campaign to provide the ignorant
                               with the knowledge to make an informed decision about one's
                               self and by extension one's family, community and world.



     Consider the following quotes:

     When you control a man's thinking you do not have to
     worry about his actions. You do not have to tell him not
     to stand here or go yonder. He will find his "proper
     place" and will stay in it. You do not need to send him to
     the back door. He will go without being told. In fact, if
     there is no back door, he will cut one for his own benefit.

                    A History of the Word Nigger
Text contributing writers: Phil Middleton and David Pilgrim. Dr. David Pilgrim, Dept. of
Sociology Ferris State University, 2001



                                               The history of the word nigger is often traced to
                                               the Latin word niger, meaning black. This word
                                               became the noun negro (black person) in
                                               English, and simply the color black in Spanish
                                               and Portuguese. In Early Modern French niger
                                               became negre and, later, negress (black woman)
                                               was unmistakably a part of lexical history. One
                                               can compare to negre the derogatory nigger and
                                               earlier English substitutes such as negar, neegar,
                                               neger, and niggor that developed into its lexico-
                                               semantic true version in English. It is probable
                                               that nigger is a phonetic spelling of the white
                                               Southern mispronunciation of Negro.


No matter what its origins, by the early 1800s it was firmly established as a degenerative
nickname. In the 21st century, it remains a principal symbol of white racism regardless of who is
using it. Social scientists refer to words like nigger, kike, spic, and wetback come from three
categories: disparaging nicknames (chink, dago, nigger, etc); explicit group devaluations ("Jew
him down," or "niggering the land"); and irrelevant ethnic names used as a mild disparagement
("jewbird" for cuckoos having prominent beaks or "Irish confetti" for bricks thrown in a fight).
Racial slurs (over time) have victimized all racial and ethnic groups; but, no American group
goes through as many racial nicknames as Blacks: coon, tom, savage, picanniny, mammy,
buck, sambo, jigaboo, buckwheat are some. Many of these slurs became fully traditional
pseudo-scientific, literary, cinematic, and everyday distortions of African Americans. These
caricatures, whether spoken, written, or reproduced in media, and material objects, reflect the
extent, the vast network, of anti-black prejudice.


The word nigger carries with it much of the hatred and disgust directed toward Black Africans
and African Americans. Historically, nigger defined, limited, made fun of, and ridiculed all
Blacks. It was a term of exclusion, a verbal reason for discrimination. Whether used as a noun,
verb, or adjective, it strengtened the stereotype of the lazy, stupid, dirty, worthless nobody. No
other American surname carries as much purposeful cruelty. The following shortlist is important
information on the words use and meaning.




Page 4
Niggerish: Acting in a lazy and irresponsible manner.

Nigger lipping: wetting the end of a cigarette while smoking it.

Niggerlover: Derogatory term aimed at whites lacking in the necessary loathing of blacks.

Nigger luck: Exceptionally good luck, emphasis on undeserved.

Nigger-flicker: A small knife or razor with one side heavily taped to preserve the user's fingers.


Nigger heaven: Designated places, usually the balcony, where blacks were forced to sit,
for example, in an integrated movie theater or church.

Nigger knocker: Axe handle or weapon made from an axe handle.

Nigger rich: Deeply in debt but flamboyant.

Nigger shooter: A slingshot.

Nigger steak: A slice of liver or a cheap piece of meat.

Nigger stick: Police officer's baton.

Nigger tip: Leaving a small tip or no tip in a restaurant. Nigger in the woodpile: A concealed
motive or unknown factor affecting a situation in an adverse way.

Nigger work: Demeaning, menial tasks.


Nigger (as a word) is also used to describe a dark shade of color (nigger-brown, nigger-black),
the status of whites that mix together with Blacks (nigger-breaker, dealer, driver, killer, stealer,
worshipper, and looking), and anything belonging to or linked to New Afrikans(nigger-baby, boy,
girl, mouth, feet, preacher, job, love, culture, college, music, etc). Nigger is the ultimate
American insult; it is used to offend other ethnic groups. Jews are called white-niggers; Arabs,
sandniggers; or Japanese, yellow-niggers. Americans created a racial hierarchy with whites at
the top and Blacks at the bottom.


In biology, heredity refers to the transference of biological characteristics from a parent
organism to offspring. The word Nigger speaks to the human heredity of Black people. Defining
which characteristics of a final person are due to heredity and which are due to environmental
influences is often a site of controversy (the nature versus nurture debate), especially regarding
intelligence and race.


The chain of command was set up by an ideology that justified the use of deceit, exploitation,
and intimidation to keep Blacks "in their place." Every major societal establishment offered
legitimacy to the racial hierarchy. Ministers preached that God was white and had condemned


Page 5
Blacks to be servants. Scientists measured Black skulls, brains, faces, and genitalia, seeking to
prove that whites were genetically superior to Blacks. White teachers, teaching only white

students, taught that Blacks were less evolved cognitively, psychologically, and socially. The
entertainment media, from vaudeville to television & film, portrayed Blacks as docile servants,
happy-go-lucky idiots, and dangerous thugs and they still do this today. The criminal justice
system sanctioned a double standard of justice, including its unspoken approval of mob
violence against Blacks and they still have a similar double standard today. Both American
slavery and the Jim Crow Laws, which followed, were saturated by anti-Black laws and images.
The negative portrayals of Blacks were both reflected in and shaped by everyday material
objects: toys, postcards, ashtrays, detergent boxes, fishing lures, and children’s books. These
items, and countless others, portrayed Blacks with bulging, darting eyes, fire-red oversized lips,
jet black skin, and either naked or poorly clothed.



In 1874, the McLoughlin Brothers of New York produced a puzzle game called "Chopped Up
Niggers." Beginning in 1878, the B. Leidersdory Company of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, produced
NiggerHair Smoking Tobacco decades later the name was changed to BiggerHair Smoking
Tobacco. A 1916 magazine ad, copyrighted by Morris & Bendien, showed a black child drinking
ink. The caption read, "Nigger Milk" (shown). In 1917, the American Tobacco Company had a
NiggerHair redemption promotion. NiggerHair coupons were redeemable for "cash, tobacco, S.
& H. Green stamps, or presents." The J. Millhoff Company of England produced a series of
cards in the 1930s, which were widely distributed in the United States. One of the cards shows
ten small black dogs with the caption: "Ten Little Nigger Boys Went Out To Dine."



This is the first line from a popular children's story called, "The Ten Little Niggers," it reads like
this. Ten Little Nigger Boys went out to dine; one choked his little self, and then there were nine.
Nine Little Nigger Boys sat up very late; one overslept, and then there were eight. Eight Little
Nigger Boys traveling in Devon; one said he'd stay there, and then there were seven. Seven
Little Nigger Boys chopping up sticks; one chopped himself in halves, and then there were six.
Six Little Nigger Boys playing with a hive; a Bumblebee stung one, and then there were five.
Five Little Nigger Boys going in for Law; one got in Chancery, and then there were four. Four
Little Nigger Boys going out to Sea; A Red Herring swallowed one, and then there were three.
Three Little Nigger Boys walking in the Zoo; the big Bear hugged one, and then there were two;
Two Little Nigger Boys sitting in the Sun; one got frizzled up, and then there was one. One Little
Nigger Boy living all alone; He got married, and then there were none.


In 1939, writer Agatha Christie published a book called Ten Little Niggers. Later editions
sometimes changed the name to Ten Little Indians, or And Then There Were None, but as late
as 1978, copies of the book with the original title were being produced. It was not rare for sheet
music produced in the first half of the 20th century to use the word nigger on the cover. The
Howley, Haviland Company of New York, produced sheet music for the songs "Hesitate Mr.
Nigger, Hesitate," and "You'se Just A Little Nigger, Still You'se Mine, All Mine." This last
example was promoted as a children's lullaby. Some small towns used nigger in their names, for
example, Nigger Run Fork, Virginia. Nigger was a common name for darkly colored pets,


Page 6
especially dogs, cats, and horses. So-called "Jolly Nigger Banks," first made in the 1800s, were
widely distributed as late as the 1960s. Another common piece with many variations, produced

on posters, postcards, and prints is a picture of a dozen black children rushing for a swimming
hole. The caption reads, "Last One In's A Nigger."


The civil rights movement, Supreme Court decisions, the Black empowerment movement, broad
civil rights legislation, and a general embracing of democracy by many American citizens have
worn down America’s racial pecking order from slavery moving into Jim Crow period and today’s
institutional racism. Yet, the word nigger has not left and its relationship with anti-Black
prejudice remains symbiotic, interrelated, and interconnected. Ironically it is co-dependent
because a racist society created nigger and continues to feed and sustain it. But, the word no
longer needs racism, or brutal and obvious forms, to survive. The word nigger today has its own
existence.


Another interesting and confusing experience in American speech is the use of nigger by
African Americans. Poetry by Blacks is instructive, one can often find the word nigger used in
Black writings. Major and minor poets alike have used it with startling results: Imamu Amiri
Baraka, contemporary poet, uses nigger in one of his angriest poems, "I Don't Love You." and
what was the world to the words of slick nigger fathers too depressed to explain why they could
not appear to be men. One wonders how are readers supposed to understand "nigger fathers"?
Baraka's use of this imagery, regardless of his purpose, reinforces the stereotype of the
worthless, pleasure-seeking Coon caricature. Ted Joans's use of nigger in "The Nice Colored
Man" is an example of explainable expression. Joans said he was asked to give a reading in
London because he was a "nice colored man." Infuriated by the labels "nice" and "colored",
Joans wrote a quintessential rebellious poem. While the poem should be read in its entirety, a
few lines will do: Smart Black Nigger Smart Black Nigger Smart Black Nigger Smart Black
Nigger Knife Carrying Nigger Gun Toting Nigger Military Nigger Clock Watching Nigger
Poisoning Nigger Disgusting Nigger Black Ass Nigger. This piece uses adjective upon adjective
attached to the word nigger.


The reality is that many of these uses can be heard in present-day African-American society.
Herein lies part of the difficulty: the word nigger endures because it is used over and over again,
even by the people it insults. Writer Devorah Major, said, "It's hard for me to say what someone
can or can't say, because I work with language all the time, and I don't want to be limited." Poet
and professor Opal Palmer Adisa claims that the use of nigger or nigga is "the same as young
people's obsession with swearing. A lot of their use of such language is an internalization of
negativity about themselves." Rappers, themselves poets, rap about niggers before mostly
white audiences, some of whom see themselves as wiggers (white niggers) and refer to one
another as "my niggah." Snoop Doggy Dogg’s single, "You Thought," raps, "Wanna grab a
skinny nigga like Snoop Dogg/Cause you like it tall/and work it baby doll." Tupac Shakur’s
"Crooked Ass Nigga." lyrics included, "Now I could be a crooked nigga too/When I'm rollin' with
my crew." Also rap lyrics that degrade women and glamorize violence reinforce the historical
Brute Caricature.




Page 7
Erdman Palmore researched lexicons and said: the number of offensive words used correlates
positively with the amount of out-group prejudice; and these express and support negative
stereotypes about the most visible racial and cultural differences. When used by Blacks, nigger
refers to among other things: all Blacks ("A nigger can't even get a break."); Black men ("Sisters

want niggers to work all day long."); Blacks who behave in a stereotypical, and sometimes
legendary, manners ("He's a lazy, good-for-nothing nigger."); things ("This piece-of-shit car is
such a nigger."); enemys ("I'm sick and tired of those niggers bothering me!"); and friends ("Me

and my niggers are tight."). This final habit, as a kind word, is particularly challenging. "Zup
Niggah," has become an almost universal greeting among young urban Blacks. When asked,
Blacks who use nigger or its variants argue that: it has to be understood in its situation;
repeated use of the word by Blacks will make it less offensive. It’s not really the same word
because whites are saying nigger (and niggers) but Blacks are saying niggah (and niggaz). Also
it is just a word and Blacks should not be prisoners of the past or the ugly words that originated
in the past.


These arguments may not be true to life. Brother (Brotha) and Sister (Sistha or Sista) are terms
of endearment. Nigger was and still is a word of disrespect. More to the point, the artificial
dichotomy between Blacks or New Afrikans(respectable and middle-class) and niggers
(disrespectable and lower class) ought to be challenged. Black is a nigger, regardless of
behavior, earnings, goals, clothing, skills, ethics, or skin color. Finally, if continued use of the
word lessened its damage then nigger would not hurt or cause pain now. Blacks, from slavery til
today, have internalized many negative images that white society cultivated and broadcast
about Black skin and Black people. This is mirrored in cycles of self-and same-race hatred. The
use of the word nigger by Blacks reflects this hatred, even when the user is unaware of the
psychological forces involved. Nigger is the ultimate expression of white racism and white
superiority nomatter how it is pronounced. It is linguistic corruption, an attack on civility.

To a smaller scale words other than Nigger also remain accepted public banter in white
America. In 1988, on Martin Luther King's birthday, sports commentator Jimmy (The Greek)
Snyder said (on national television) that Black people were better at sports because of slave
plantation breeding techniques. "During the slave period, the slave owner would breed his Black
with his big woman so that he would have a big black-kid that's were it all started." Another
sports announcer Billy Packer referred to Pro-basketball player Allan Iverson as a "tough
monkey." Another announcer, Howard Cosell referred to Alvin Garrett, a pro football player with
the Washington Redskins as "little monkey" during a Monday Night Football game. The
comments made by Cosell and Packer did not go without any punitive consequences. Nigger is
one of the most notorious words in American culture. Some words carry more weight than
others. But without trying to exaggerate, is genocide just another word? Pedophilia? Clearly, no
and neither is nigger.

After a period of relative dormancy, the word nigger has been reborn in popular culture. It is
hard-edged, streetwise, and it has crossed over into movies like Pulp Fiction (1994) and Jackie
Brown (1997), where it became a symbol of "street authenticity" and hip-ness. Denzel
Washington's character in Training Day (2001) uses nigger frequently and harshly. Richard
Pryor long ago rejected the use of the word in his comedy act, but Chris Rock, Chris Tucker and




Page 8
other Black male comedy kings, use nigger regularly and not affectionately. Justin Driver, a
social critic, makes a case that both Rock and Tucker are modern minstrels shucking, jiving,
and grinning, in the tradition of Stepin Fetchit. White supremacists have found the Internet an

indispensable tool for spreading their message of hate. An Internet search of nigger using
Netscape or Alta Vista locates many anti-Black web pages: Niggers Must Die, Hang A Nigger
For America, Nigger Joke Central, and many others. Web searchers find what most Blacks


know from personal experience, that nigger is an expression of anti-Black hostility. Wihtout
question nigger is the most commonly used racist slur during hate crimes.


No American minority group has been caricatured as often, in as many ways, as Black people.
These misrepresentations feature distorted physical descriptions and negative cultural and
behavior stereotypes. The Coon caricature, for example, was a tall, skinny, loose-jointed, dark-
skinned male, often bald, with oversized, ruby-red lips. His clothing was either ragged and dirty
or extremely gaudy. His slow, exaggerated walk suggested laziness. He was a pauper, lacking
ambition and the skills necessary for upward social mobility. He was a buffoon. When
frightened, the Coon's eyes bulged and darted. His speech was slurred, halted, and stuffed with
malapropisms. His piercing, high-pitched voice made whites laugh. The Coon caricature

dehumanized Blacks, and served to justify social, economic, and political discrimination. Nigger
may be viewed as an umbrella term, a way of saying that Blacks have the negative
characteristics of the Coon, Buck, Tom, Mammy, Sambo, Picaninny, and other anti-Black
caricatures.


Nigger, like the false impressions it incorporates and means, puts down Blacks, and rationalizes
their abuse. The use of the word or its alternatives by Blacks has not lessened its hurt. This is
not surprising in a racial hierarchy four centuries old, shaping the historical relationship between
European Americans and African Americans. Anti-Black attitudes, motives, values, and
behavior continue. Historically, Nigger more than any other word capture the personal hatred
and institutionalized racism directed toward Blacks. It still does.


In 2003, the fight to correct the shameful availability of this word has had positive results.
Recently Kweisi Mfume, President and CEO of the National Association for the Advancement of
Colored People (NAACP), gave a speech at Virginia Tech. There everyone was informed that a
landmark decision was made with the people at Merriam-Webster Dictionary. Recognizing their
error, beginning with the next edition the word nigger will no longer be synonymous with African-
Americans in their publication.

THE ORIGINAL MEANING OF THE "N" WORD
                                      By: Pianke Nubiyang
                                      Date: 27, January 02

THE ORIGINAL MEANING OF THE "N" WORD HAD A CONNOTATION CONNECTED TO
THE GODS

The word "nig..." used to be the most revered and sacred word in the universe. It was the
"devine epithet," and the people who began using the mother of all words that originated from
this word which was sullied by the British, were the ancient Egyptians or better, the Khemites,
who called their land, "Khemet" or "The Black Land," and also used the name, "Ta-merri" or
"The Beloved Land.”

The father of the "n" word was the word used by the ancient Egyptians for "God." That word was
"N-g-r" and as one can see, there are no vowels in this word. In the ancient African and even
the present African languages (the Afro-Asiatic linguistic family) vowels such as "a,e,i,o,u" are
not found in many translations, particularly of ancient Hebrew and Egyptian languages.

In the translation of ancient Egyptian and Hebrew (which is heavily influenced by Egyptian), one
will not always find vowels, therefore, very few people will realize that the word for God, which is
"N-g-r" pronounced "en-ger" was the Egyptian word for God. In fact, the Egyptian word for
"nature," is also the word used for God. That word is "ntyr," (pronounced net-jer." Now prounce
the word "nigg.." and the word "net-jer," and one sees the clear connection.

MANY AFRICAN WORDS DENOTING PEOPLE OR IMPORTANT PEOPLE STARTS WITH "N"

In many African languages particularly the Niger-Congo language family. Words that connects
with people, Gods, and groups begin with "n" and that word is always the first word. For
instance, the word "Nkosi" in Xhosa is "God." The word "Ndaba," in another South African
language is "counsil" (or gathering of elders). Many common names also begin with "N".

WORDS OF AFRICAN ORIGINS THAT CAME FROM THE ORIGINAL WORD, "N-G-R"
(PROUNOUNCED EN-JER)

N-g-r (Egyptian;pronounced en-jer) = God
N-t-y-r (Egypt; pronounced net-ger) = God, Devine
Negash (Ethiopia; ne-gash) = King
Negus (Ethiopia; ne-goos) = Emperor
Nkosi (Xhosa; en-kosi) = God
Ndaba (Zulu; en-daba) = Counsil/Officials,
Naga (East Indian, Nubian = People
Nugarmarta (West African = People (See the writings of Ibn Buttata's journey to West Africa)

HOW THE N BECAME CORRUPTED

The Romans are probably the first Europeans to misrepresent the word for God, which was "N-
g-r"
About the early part of the First Century, Romans tried to invade Ethiopia. (see BLACK
HISTORY CHART http://community.webtv.net/nubianem/blackworldnubianempire or go to
http://community.webtv.net/paulnubiaempire for a list of Nubian Pharaohs and Queens.

The Romans who were speakers of Latin always knew of Blacks, there were Blacks in Rome,
Italy had an ancient Black presence long before the Latins migrated from Central Asia and North
Eastern Europe during the 'Aryan' migrations. In fact, the Latin ethnic groups is still in existance
in the northern part of Italy even today. This part of Italy still grips about Hannibal's invasion
which happened about two thousand two hundred years ago!!!!

The Romans had a name for Blacks, it was "Niger" and it meant Black or people of African
origins. Thus, Septimus Niger would have meant, Septimus the Negro. Yet, how did the
Romans connect the word "Niger" to Black.

In ancient times, Blacks were worshipped as Gods. The Gods of Greece came from Egypt. The
worship of the Black Madonna is connected with the worship of Isis, the Egyptian Goddes.
Moreover, Blacks in Egypt called their Pharaohs "En-ger" or "N-g-r" he was literally referred to
as "THE GOD."

It is very possible that when the Romans tried to invade Nubia, they asked for the name of the
God and the term "N-g-r" was probably used in place of "leader" or "king". In Angola, the same
also happened during the 1600's when the word "N-gola" which means "King" (notice the "N"
and the "g" in this word as well), came to be "Angola,' the name of a kingdom in south western
Africa.
(Read more on Nubian, Egyptian, West African and ancient American trade and commercial
connections in ancient times; see the book, "Susu Economics: The History of Pan-African
Trade, Commerce, Money and Wealth," published by 1stBooks Library, www.1stbooks.com also
see www.barnesandnoble.com

WHERE DID THE ROMANS FIRST HEAR THE ORIGINAL MEANING OF THE "N" WORD.

A Roman general invading Nubia from Egypt would probably have used the Egyptian term for
Pharaoh, which was "N-g-r" (God). This term then was used to refer to all Blacks and as time
went by, the word N-g-r became Niger. In Fact, the Romans also classified their Emperors as
"Gods," to follow the Egyptian style. Moreover, as the History Channel poointed out, "Rome was
a   collection     of   villages    before  the     Egyptians    built  it   up."(paraphrased).
The word "em-peror" sounds very close to the word "en-jer." That is not a coincidental
connection.




Page 11
THE WORD "N-G-R" (EN-JER) AFTER IT WAS CORRUPTED BY THE EUROPEANS

Niger = (Latin or Black/African pronounced "ni-ger.")

Nero = Italian for Black
Negre = French for Black
Negro = Spanish for Black
The English called Blacks "Moore" or "Black-a-Moore" before they began using the word
"Negro" to refer to Blacks. FROM THAT WORD CAME THE RACIAL EPITHET, "NIGG.."

In like manner, the racist term for Japanese the mutilation of the word to shorten it into an
epithet. Furthermore, the original name for Japan is the Chinese "Ni-Han." Now here is another
great mystry that people who study the Niger-Congo linguistic family would quickly notice.
EVEN THE WORD "Ni" in the Chinese "Ni-Han," has and ancient African connection. In fact, as
Clyde Walters points out, The Chinese language is directly related to the Niger-Congo language
which has its roots in the Cameroon region of Africa. In fact, there are thousands of African
words from Cameroon to Kenya that have both prefixes and suffixes that are identical to both
Chinese and Japanese languages (see also African Presence in Early Asia, by Ivan Van
Sertima; Transaction Publishers)

In the Case of "Ni-Han" which may mean "rising sun," there is also a sacred meaning that is
found in the word "n-ger," or "ne-gro." Yet, the racist terms "nip," and "nigg..." or "jap," used by
racists were and are being used without any understanding of their original meanings. Only
hatred and envy comes out of the mouths of those who use racial epithets in their attempt to
insult and denegrade others. However, it is up to us to study our history and make these racist
words impotent, while at the same time, understanding their original meaning.

Connection with the prefix "ni" with sacred and life:

Ni'le = The Nile River, Life to the Egyptians

Ni-ger = River in West Africa
Niger = Nation in West Africa
Nigeria = Nation in West Africa

Nago = Racist term used by some SE Asians to refer to Black Melanesians of Africoid origins

Nago-Mina = African nationality in Nigeria

Naghual = Aztec word for Shaman or priest. The first Olmec Shamans in Mexico came from
Nigeria and elsewhere in West Africa (see Black Civilizations of America
http://community.webtv.net/paulnubiaempire

THE ORIGINS OF THE TERM "HUN."

The racist term for whites also comes from a word that struck fear in the hearts of whites during
the ancint times. That word is "Hun." The Huns were Mongol barbarians from Mongolia who
tried to invade China and finally succeeded. THye invaded Eurasia from Russia all the way to
Germany and mixed in with the Caucasians. Hence, the British began calling Germans the term
"Hun."

The countries of Hungary, East Germany, northern Italy, Russia, Poland and much of Eastern
Europe is mixed with the Mongol invaders. There were Mongol invaders in Turkey, Afghanistan,
India, and many nations.

THE MONGOLS WERE DEFEATED BY NUBIANS AND MAMELUKES

When the Huns tried to invade Egypt (sometime in the 1100's), they were met by a strong force
of Nubians and Mamelukes (white slaves from slavic, Turkics from Bosnia, Serbia, Albania,
Turkey and such nations), who were soldiers for the Egyptian rulers. The Mongols were
defeated and that was the end of the Mongol Empire. Moreover, they were thinly spread over
Eurasia. They also met a crack cavalry of Nubian horsemen and archers, who had a tradition of
archery that extends way back to ancient Egyptian times.

When one studies the history of the Huns in Europe, it is one of the most horrible genocides that
existed (the genocide against Black Sudras and Black Australoids in India is another great
genocide; see "Sudrology, http://dalitstan.org )
The huns ravaged Europe and are said to spread the blacck plague by shooting plague infested
rats in the walled towns of the Europeans to infest them.

WE MUST STUDY OUR HISTORY IN ORDER TO DEVELOP OUR CONSCIOUSNESS AND
MAKE PEOPLE'S RACIST REMARKS IMPOTENT

We must study our history. It is by knowing who we are that racist remarks and racial epithets
will become impotent. Every time one uses the word "nigg..." to refer to a Black person, they are
actually calling that person "God." When we Blacks say that our Afro's and locks are "natural,"
we don't realize the significance of the word or the true meaning. But something in our
consciousness simply cannot be destroyed. To say we are going "natural," means we are going
back to being "gods," because the word "natural," comes from the original Egyptian word, "n-t-y-
r" which means "God." The ancient Egyptians used a similar word to call their Pharoahs. That
word was "N-g-r." The word "Pharaoh," was never used to refer to any Egyptian King. Pharaoh
came from the word "Per-o" which was the term for the Great Temple, where the King lived.

It is otherwise a word expressive of racial hatred and bigotry. Many in the African American ethic group continue to refer to themselves and other New Afrikans as niggers (niggas). This is a campaign to provide the ignorant with the knowledge to make an informed decision about one's self and by extension one's family, community and world. Consider the following quotes: When you control a man's thinking you do not have to worry about his actions. You do not have to tell him not to stand here or go yonder. He will find his "proper place" and will stay in it. You do not need to send him to the back door. He will go without being told. In fact, if there is no back door, he will cut one for his own benefit. …. Carter G. Woodson (1933).

A History of the Word Nigger Text contributing writers: Phil Middleton and David Pilgrim. Dr. David Pilgrim, Dept. of Sociology Ferris State University, 2001 The history of the word nigger is often traced to the Latin word niger, meaning black. This word became the noun negro (black person) in English, and simply the color black in Spanish and Portuguese. In Early Modern French niger became negre and, later, negress (black woman) was unmistakably a part of lexical history. One can compare to negre the derogatory nigger and earlier English substitutes such as negar, neegar, neger, and niggor that developed into its lexico- semantic true version in English. It is probable that nigger is a phonetic spelling of the white Southern mispronunciation of Negro. No matter what its origins, by the early 1800s it was firmly established as a degenerative nickname. In the 21st century, it remains a principal symbol of white racism regardless of who is using it. Social scientists refer to words like nigger, kike, spic, and wetback come from three categories: disparaging nicknames (chink, dago, nigger, etc); explicit group devaluations ("Jew him down," or "niggering the land"); and irrelevant ethnic names used as a mild disparagement ("jewbird" for cuckoos having prominent beaks or "Irish confetti" for bricks thrown in a fight). Racial slurs (over time) have victimized all racial and ethnic groups; but, no American group goes through as many racial nicknames as Blacks: coon, tom, savage, picanniny, mammy, buck, sambo, jigaboo, buckwheat are some. Many of these slurs became fully traditional pseudo-scientific, literary, cinematic, and everyday distortions of African Americans. These caricatures, whether spoken, written, or reproduced in media, and material objects, reflect the extent, the vast network, of anti-black prejudice. The word nigger carries with it much of the hatred and disgust directed toward Black Africans and African Americans. Historically, nigger defined, limited, made fun of, and ridiculed all Blacks. It was a term of exclusion, a verbal reason for discrimination. Whether used as a noun, verb, or adjective, it strengtened the stereotype of the lazy, stupid, dirty, worthless nobody. No other American surname carries as much purposeful cruelty. The following shortlist is important information on the words use and meaning. Page 4
  • 5. Niggerish: Acting in a lazy and irresponsible manner. Nigger lipping: wetting the end of a cigarette while smoking it. Niggerlover: Derogatory term aimed at whites lacking in the necessary loathing of blacks. Nigger luck: Exceptionally good luck, emphasis on undeserved. Nigger-flicker: A small knife or razor with one side heavily taped to preserve the user's fingers. Nigger heaven: Designated places, usually the balcony, where blacks were forced to sit, for example, in an integrated movie theater or church. Nigger knocker: Axe handle or weapon made from an axe handle. Nigger rich: Deeply in debt but flamboyant. Nigger shooter: A slingshot. Nigger steak: A slice of liver or a cheap piece of meat. Nigger stick: Police officer's baton. Nigger tip: Leaving a small tip or no tip in a restaurant. Nigger in the woodpile: A concealed motive or unknown factor affecting a situation in an adverse way. Nigger work: Demeaning, menial tasks. Nigger (as a word) is also used to describe a dark shade of color (nigger-brown, nigger-black), the status of whites that mix together with Blacks (nigger-breaker, dealer, driver, killer, stealer, worshipper, and looking), and anything belonging to or linked to New Afrikans(nigger-baby, boy, girl, mouth, feet, preacher, job, love, culture, college, music, etc). Nigger is the ultimate American insult; it is used to offend other ethnic groups. Jews are called white-niggers; Arabs, sandniggers; or Japanese, yellow-niggers. Americans created a racial hierarchy with whites at the top and Blacks at the bottom. In biology, heredity refers to the transference of biological characteristics from a parent organism to offspring. The word Nigger speaks to the human heredity of Black people. Defining which characteristics of a final person are due to heredity and which are due to environmental influences is often a site of controversy (the nature versus nurture debate), especially regarding intelligence and race. The chain of command was set up by an ideology that justified the use of deceit, exploitation, and intimidation to keep Blacks "in their place." Every major societal establishment offered legitimacy to the racial hierarchy. Ministers preached that God was white and had condemned Page 5
  • 6. Blacks to be servants. Scientists measured Black skulls, brains, faces, and genitalia, seeking to prove that whites were genetically superior to Blacks. White teachers, teaching only white students, taught that Blacks were less evolved cognitively, psychologically, and socially. The entertainment media, from vaudeville to television & film, portrayed Blacks as docile servants, happy-go-lucky idiots, and dangerous thugs and they still do this today. The criminal justice system sanctioned a double standard of justice, including its unspoken approval of mob violence against Blacks and they still have a similar double standard today. Both American slavery and the Jim Crow Laws, which followed, were saturated by anti-Black laws and images. The negative portrayals of Blacks were both reflected in and shaped by everyday material objects: toys, postcards, ashtrays, detergent boxes, fishing lures, and children’s books. These items, and countless others, portrayed Blacks with bulging, darting eyes, fire-red oversized lips, jet black skin, and either naked or poorly clothed. In 1874, the McLoughlin Brothers of New York produced a puzzle game called "Chopped Up Niggers." Beginning in 1878, the B. Leidersdory Company of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, produced NiggerHair Smoking Tobacco decades later the name was changed to BiggerHair Smoking Tobacco. A 1916 magazine ad, copyrighted by Morris & Bendien, showed a black child drinking ink. The caption read, "Nigger Milk" (shown). In 1917, the American Tobacco Company had a NiggerHair redemption promotion. NiggerHair coupons were redeemable for "cash, tobacco, S. & H. Green stamps, or presents." The J. Millhoff Company of England produced a series of cards in the 1930s, which were widely distributed in the United States. One of the cards shows ten small black dogs with the caption: "Ten Little Nigger Boys Went Out To Dine." This is the first line from a popular children's story called, "The Ten Little Niggers," it reads like this. Ten Little Nigger Boys went out to dine; one choked his little self, and then there were nine. Nine Little Nigger Boys sat up very late; one overslept, and then there were eight. Eight Little Nigger Boys traveling in Devon; one said he'd stay there, and then there were seven. Seven Little Nigger Boys chopping up sticks; one chopped himself in halves, and then there were six. Six Little Nigger Boys playing with a hive; a Bumblebee stung one, and then there were five. Five Little Nigger Boys going in for Law; one got in Chancery, and then there were four. Four Little Nigger Boys going out to Sea; A Red Herring swallowed one, and then there were three. Three Little Nigger Boys walking in the Zoo; the big Bear hugged one, and then there were two; Two Little Nigger Boys sitting in the Sun; one got frizzled up, and then there was one. One Little Nigger Boy living all alone; He got married, and then there were none. In 1939, writer Agatha Christie published a book called Ten Little Niggers. Later editions sometimes changed the name to Ten Little Indians, or And Then There Were None, but as late as 1978, copies of the book with the original title were being produced. It was not rare for sheet music produced in the first half of the 20th century to use the word nigger on the cover. The Howley, Haviland Company of New York, produced sheet music for the songs "Hesitate Mr. Nigger, Hesitate," and "You'se Just A Little Nigger, Still You'se Mine, All Mine." This last example was promoted as a children's lullaby. Some small towns used nigger in their names, for example, Nigger Run Fork, Virginia. Nigger was a common name for darkly colored pets, Page 6
  • 7. especially dogs, cats, and horses. So-called "Jolly Nigger Banks," first made in the 1800s, were widely distributed as late as the 1960s. Another common piece with many variations, produced on posters, postcards, and prints is a picture of a dozen black children rushing for a swimming hole. The caption reads, "Last One In's A Nigger." The civil rights movement, Supreme Court decisions, the Black empowerment movement, broad civil rights legislation, and a general embracing of democracy by many American citizens have worn down America’s racial pecking order from slavery moving into Jim Crow period and today’s institutional racism. Yet, the word nigger has not left and its relationship with anti-Black prejudice remains symbiotic, interrelated, and interconnected. Ironically it is co-dependent because a racist society created nigger and continues to feed and sustain it. But, the word no longer needs racism, or brutal and obvious forms, to survive. The word nigger today has its own existence. Another interesting and confusing experience in American speech is the use of nigger by African Americans. Poetry by Blacks is instructive, one can often find the word nigger used in Black writings. Major and minor poets alike have used it with startling results: Imamu Amiri Baraka, contemporary poet, uses nigger in one of his angriest poems, "I Don't Love You." and what was the world to the words of slick nigger fathers too depressed to explain why they could not appear to be men. One wonders how are readers supposed to understand "nigger fathers"? Baraka's use of this imagery, regardless of his purpose, reinforces the stereotype of the worthless, pleasure-seeking Coon caricature. Ted Joans's use of nigger in "The Nice Colored Man" is an example of explainable expression. Joans said he was asked to give a reading in London because he was a "nice colored man." Infuriated by the labels "nice" and "colored", Joans wrote a quintessential rebellious poem. While the poem should be read in its entirety, a few lines will do: Smart Black Nigger Smart Black Nigger Smart Black Nigger Smart Black Nigger Knife Carrying Nigger Gun Toting Nigger Military Nigger Clock Watching Nigger Poisoning Nigger Disgusting Nigger Black Ass Nigger. This piece uses adjective upon adjective attached to the word nigger. The reality is that many of these uses can be heard in present-day African-American society. Herein lies part of the difficulty: the word nigger endures because it is used over and over again, even by the people it insults. Writer Devorah Major, said, "It's hard for me to say what someone can or can't say, because I work with language all the time, and I don't want to be limited." Poet and professor Opal Palmer Adisa claims that the use of nigger or nigga is "the same as young people's obsession with swearing. A lot of their use of such language is an internalization of negativity about themselves." Rappers, themselves poets, rap about niggers before mostly white audiences, some of whom see themselves as wiggers (white niggers) and refer to one another as "my niggah." Snoop Doggy Dogg’s single, "You Thought," raps, "Wanna grab a skinny nigga like Snoop Dogg/Cause you like it tall/and work it baby doll." Tupac Shakur’s "Crooked Ass Nigga." lyrics included, "Now I could be a crooked nigga too/When I'm rollin' with my crew." Also rap lyrics that degrade women and glamorize violence reinforce the historical Brute Caricature. Page 7
  • 8. Erdman Palmore researched lexicons and said: the number of offensive words used correlates positively with the amount of out-group prejudice; and these express and support negative stereotypes about the most visible racial and cultural differences. When used by Blacks, nigger refers to among other things: all Blacks ("A nigger can't even get a break."); Black men ("Sisters want niggers to work all day long."); Blacks who behave in a stereotypical, and sometimes legendary, manners ("He's a lazy, good-for-nothing nigger."); things ("This piece-of-shit car is such a nigger."); enemys ("I'm sick and tired of those niggers bothering me!"); and friends ("Me and my niggers are tight."). This final habit, as a kind word, is particularly challenging. "Zup Niggah," has become an almost universal greeting among young urban Blacks. When asked, Blacks who use nigger or its variants argue that: it has to be understood in its situation; repeated use of the word by Blacks will make it less offensive. It’s not really the same word because whites are saying nigger (and niggers) but Blacks are saying niggah (and niggaz). Also it is just a word and Blacks should not be prisoners of the past or the ugly words that originated in the past. These arguments may not be true to life. Brother (Brotha) and Sister (Sistha or Sista) are terms of endearment. Nigger was and still is a word of disrespect. More to the point, the artificial dichotomy between Blacks or New Afrikans(respectable and middle-class) and niggers (disrespectable and lower class) ought to be challenged. Black is a nigger, regardless of behavior, earnings, goals, clothing, skills, ethics, or skin color. Finally, if continued use of the word lessened its damage then nigger would not hurt or cause pain now. Blacks, from slavery til today, have internalized many negative images that white society cultivated and broadcast about Black skin and Black people. This is mirrored in cycles of self-and same-race hatred. The use of the word nigger by Blacks reflects this hatred, even when the user is unaware of the psychological forces involved. Nigger is the ultimate expression of white racism and white superiority nomatter how it is pronounced. It is linguistic corruption, an attack on civility. To a smaller scale words other than Nigger also remain accepted public banter in white America. In 1988, on Martin Luther King's birthday, sports commentator Jimmy (The Greek) Snyder said (on national television) that Black people were better at sports because of slave plantation breeding techniques. "During the slave period, the slave owner would breed his Black with his big woman so that he would have a big black-kid that's were it all started." Another sports announcer Billy Packer referred to Pro-basketball player Allan Iverson as a "tough monkey." Another announcer, Howard Cosell referred to Alvin Garrett, a pro football player with the Washington Redskins as "little monkey" during a Monday Night Football game. The comments made by Cosell and Packer did not go without any punitive consequences. Nigger is one of the most notorious words in American culture. Some words carry more weight than others. But without trying to exaggerate, is genocide just another word? Pedophilia? Clearly, no and neither is nigger. After a period of relative dormancy, the word nigger has been reborn in popular culture. It is hard-edged, streetwise, and it has crossed over into movies like Pulp Fiction (1994) and Jackie Brown (1997), where it became a symbol of "street authenticity" and hip-ness. Denzel Washington's character in Training Day (2001) uses nigger frequently and harshly. Richard Pryor long ago rejected the use of the word in his comedy act, but Chris Rock, Chris Tucker and Page 8
  • 9. other Black male comedy kings, use nigger regularly and not affectionately. Justin Driver, a social critic, makes a case that both Rock and Tucker are modern minstrels shucking, jiving, and grinning, in the tradition of Stepin Fetchit. White supremacists have found the Internet an indispensable tool for spreading their message of hate. An Internet search of nigger using Netscape or Alta Vista locates many anti-Black web pages: Niggers Must Die, Hang A Nigger For America, Nigger Joke Central, and many others. Web searchers find what most Blacks know from personal experience, that nigger is an expression of anti-Black hostility. Wihtout question nigger is the most commonly used racist slur during hate crimes. No American minority group has been caricatured as often, in as many ways, as Black people. These misrepresentations feature distorted physical descriptions and negative cultural and behavior stereotypes. The Coon caricature, for example, was a tall, skinny, loose-jointed, dark- skinned male, often bald, with oversized, ruby-red lips. His clothing was either ragged and dirty or extremely gaudy. His slow, exaggerated walk suggested laziness. He was a pauper, lacking ambition and the skills necessary for upward social mobility. He was a buffoon. When frightened, the Coon's eyes bulged and darted. His speech was slurred, halted, and stuffed with malapropisms. His piercing, high-pitched voice made whites laugh. The Coon caricature dehumanized Blacks, and served to justify social, economic, and political discrimination. Nigger may be viewed as an umbrella term, a way of saying that Blacks have the negative characteristics of the Coon, Buck, Tom, Mammy, Sambo, Picaninny, and other anti-Black caricatures. Nigger, like the false impressions it incorporates and means, puts down Blacks, and rationalizes their abuse. The use of the word or its alternatives by Blacks has not lessened its hurt. This is not surprising in a racial hierarchy four centuries old, shaping the historical relationship between European Americans and African Americans. Anti-Black attitudes, motives, values, and behavior continue. Historically, Nigger more than any other word capture the personal hatred and institutionalized racism directed toward Blacks. It still does. In 2003, the fight to correct the shameful availability of this word has had positive results. Recently Kweisi Mfume, President and CEO of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), gave a speech at Virginia Tech. There everyone was informed that a landmark decision was made with the people at Merriam-Webster Dictionary. Recognizing their error, beginning with the next edition the word nigger will no longer be synonymous with African- Americans in their publication.

  • 10. THE ORIGINAL MEANING OF THE "N" WORD By: Pianke Nubiyang Date: 27, January 02 THE ORIGINAL MEANING OF THE "N" WORD HAD A CONNOTATION CONNECTED TO THE GODS The word "nig..." used to be the most revered and sacred word in the universe. It was the "devine epithet," and the people who began using the mother of all words that originated from this word which was sullied by the British, were the ancient Egyptians or better, the Khemites, who called their land, "Khemet" or "The Black Land," and also used the name, "Ta-merri" or "The Beloved Land.” The father of the "n" word was the word used by the ancient Egyptians for "God." That word was "N-g-r" and as one can see, there are no vowels in this word. In the ancient African and even the present African languages (the Afro-Asiatic linguistic family) vowels such as "a,e,i,o,u" are not found in many translations, particularly of ancient Hebrew and Egyptian languages. In the translation of ancient Egyptian and Hebrew (which is heavily influenced by Egyptian), one will not always find vowels, therefore, very few people will realize that the word for God, which is "N-g-r" pronounced "en-ger" was the Egyptian word for God. In fact, the Egyptian word for "nature," is also the word used for God. That word is "ntyr," (pronounced net-jer." Now prounce the word "nigg.." and the word "net-jer," and one sees the clear connection. MANY AFRICAN WORDS DENOTING PEOPLE OR IMPORTANT PEOPLE STARTS WITH "N" In many African languages particularly the Niger-Congo language family. Words that connects with people, Gods, and groups begin with "n" and that word is always the first word. For instance, the word "Nkosi" in Xhosa is "God." The word "Ndaba," in another South African language is "counsil" (or gathering of elders). Many common names also begin with "N". WORDS OF AFRICAN ORIGINS THAT CAME FROM THE ORIGINAL WORD, "N-G-R" (PROUNOUNCED EN-JER) N-g-r (Egyptian;pronounced en-jer) = God N-t-y-r (Egypt; pronounced net-ger) = God, Devine Negash (Ethiopia; ne-gash) = King Negus (Ethiopia; ne-goos) = Emperor Nkosi (Xhosa; en-kosi) = God Ndaba (Zulu; en-daba) = Counsil/Officials, Naga (East Indian, Nubian = People Nugarmarta (West African = People (See the writings of Ibn Buttata's journey to West Africa) Page 10
  • 11. HOW THE N BECAME CORRUPTED The Romans are probably the first Europeans to misrepresent the word for God, which was "N- g-r" About the early part of the First Century, Romans tried to invade Ethiopia. (see BLACK HISTORY CHART http://community.webtv.net/nubianem/blackworldnubianempire or go to http://community.webtv.net/paulnubiaempire for a list of Nubian Pharaohs and Queens. The Romans who were speakers of Latin always knew of Blacks, there were Blacks in Rome, Italy had an ancient Black presence long before the Latins migrated from Central Asia and North Eastern Europe during the 'Aryan' migrations. In fact, the Latin ethnic groups is still in existance in the northern part of Italy even today. This part of Italy still grips about Hannibal's invasion which happened about two thousand two hundred years ago!!!! The Romans had a name for Blacks, it was "Niger" and it meant Black or people of African origins. Thus, Septimus Niger would have meant, Septimus the Negro. Yet, how did the Romans connect the word "Niger" to Black. In ancient times, Blacks were worshipped as Gods. The Gods of Greece came from Egypt. The worship of the Black Madonna is connected with the worship of Isis, the Egyptian Goddes. Moreover, Blacks in Egypt called their Pharaohs "En-ger" or "N-g-r" he was literally referred to as "THE GOD." It is very possible that when the Romans tried to invade Nubia, they asked for the name of the God and the term "N-g-r" was probably used in place of "leader" or "king". In Angola, the same also happened during the 1600's when the word "N-gola" which means "King" (notice the "N" and the "g" in this word as well), came to be "Angola,' the name of a kingdom in south western Africa. (Read more on Nubian, Egyptian, West African and ancient American trade and commercial connections in ancient times; see the book, "Susu Economics: The History of Pan-African Trade, Commerce, Money and Wealth," published by 1stBooks Library, www.1stbooks.com also see www.barnesandnoble.com WHERE DID THE ROMANS FIRST HEAR THE ORIGINAL MEANING OF THE "N" WORD. A Roman general invading Nubia from Egypt would probably have used the Egyptian term for Pharaoh, which was "N-g-r" (God). This term then was used to refer to all Blacks and as time went by, the word N-g-r became Niger. In Fact, the Romans also classified their Emperors as "Gods," to follow the Egyptian style. Moreover, as the History Channel poointed out, "Rome was a collection of villages before the Egyptians built it up."(paraphrased). The word "em-peror" sounds very close to the word "en-jer." That is not a coincidental connection. Page 11
  • 12. THE WORD "N-G-R" (EN-JER) AFTER IT WAS CORRUPTED BY THE EUROPEANS Niger = (Latin or Black/African pronounced "ni-ger.") Nero = Italian for Black Negre = French for Black Negro = Spanish for Black The English called Blacks "Moore" or "Black-a-Moore" before they began using the word "Negro" to refer to Blacks. FROM THAT WORD CAME THE RACIAL EPITHET, "NIGG.." In like manner, the racist term for Japanese the mutilation of the word to shorten it into an epithet. Furthermore, the original name for Japan is the Chinese "Ni-Han." Now here is another great mystry that people who study the Niger-Congo linguistic family would quickly notice. EVEN THE WORD "Ni" in the Chinese "Ni-Han," has and ancient African connection. In fact, as Clyde Walters points out, The Chinese language is directly related to the Niger-Congo language which has its roots in the Cameroon region of Africa. In fact, there are thousands of African words from Cameroon to Kenya that have both prefixes and suffixes that are identical to both Chinese and Japanese languages (see also African Presence in Early Asia, by Ivan Van Sertima; Transaction Publishers) In the Case of "Ni-Han" which may mean "rising sun," there is also a sacred meaning that is found in the word "n-ger," or "ne-gro." Yet, the racist terms "nip," and "nigg..." or "jap," used by racists were and are being used without any understanding of their original meanings. Only hatred and envy comes out of the mouths of those who use racial epithets in their attempt to insult and denegrade others. However, it is up to us to study our history and make these racist words impotent, while at the same time, understanding their original meaning. Connection with the prefix "ni" with sacred and life: Ni'le = The Nile River, Life to the Egyptians Ni-ger = River in West Africa Niger = Nation in West Africa Nigeria = Nation in West Africa Nago = Racist term used by some SE Asians to refer to Black Melanesians of Africoid origins Nago-Mina = African nationality in Nigeria Naghual = Aztec word for Shaman or priest. The first Olmec Shamans in Mexico came from Nigeria and elsewhere in West Africa (see Black Civilizations of America http://community.webtv.net/paulnubiaempire Page 12
  • 13. THE ORIGINS OF THE TERM "HUN." The racist term for whites also comes from a word that struck fear in the hearts of whites during the ancint times. That word is "Hun." The Huns were Mongol barbarians from Mongolia who tried to invade China and finally succeeded. THye invaded Eurasia from Russia all the way to Germany and mixed in with the Caucasians. Hence, the British began calling Germans the term "Hun." The countries of Hungary, East Germany, northern Italy, Russia, Poland and much of Eastern Europe is mixed with the Mongol invaders. There were Mongol invaders in Turkey, Afghanistan, India, and many nations. THE MONGOLS WERE DEFEATED BY NUBIANS AND MAMELUKES When the Huns tried to invade Egypt (sometime in the 1100's), they were met by a strong force of Nubians and Mamelukes (white slaves from slavic, Turkics from Bosnia, Serbia, Albania, Turkey and such nations), who were soldiers for the Egyptian rulers. The Mongols were defeated and that was the end of the Mongol Empire. Moreover, they were thinly spread over Eurasia. They also met a crack cavalry of Nubian horsemen and archers, who had a tradition of archery that extends way back to ancient Egyptian times. When one studies the history of the Huns in Europe, it is one of the most horrible genocides that existed (the genocide against Black Sudras and Black Australoids in India is another great genocide; see "Sudrology, http://dalitstan.org ) The huns ravaged Europe and are said to spread the blacck plague by shooting plague infested rats in the walled towns of the Europeans to infest them. WE MUST STUDY OUR HISTORY IN ORDER TO DEVELOP OUR CONSCIOUSNESS AND MAKE PEOPLE'S RACIST REMARKS IMPOTENT We must study our history. It is by knowing who we are that racist remarks and racial epithets will become impotent. Every time one uses the word "nigg..." to refer to a Black person, they are actually calling that person "God." When we Blacks say that our Afro's and locks are "natural," we don't realize the significance of the word or the true meaning. But something in our consciousness simply cannot be destroyed. To say we are going "natural," means we are going back to being "gods," because the word "natural," comes from the original Egyptian word, "n-t-y- r" which means "God." The ancient Egyptians used a similar word to call their Pharoahs. That word was "N-g-r." The word "Pharaoh," was never used to refer to any Egyptian King. Pharaoh came from the word "Per-o" which was the term for the Great Temple, where the King lived. P.
