Why do black people get upset when non-black rappers use the N-word?
Can you explain to me why black people get upset when non-black rappers use the N-word?
Of course. The N-word has a very complex history in America, particularly when it comes to its usage in the African American community. For many black people, it is seen as a term of endearment that can only be used within their own community. When non-black people, particularly white people, use the word, it is seen as a form of appropriation and disrespect of black culture.
