Amira is the new girl in town. She struggles with the pressures of popularity and during this, she meets a boy nicknamed "Scorpio". Soon after, she learns why they call him Scorpio.
So we're gonna talk about it, since it needs to be talked about.

Yes, I know it's really fucking frustrating to have to make what's right and what wrong about the n word. No one likes to repeat themselves over and over about how they feel and when they start to feel like "meh it's whatever" because "everyone says it" "it's not racist" "it's 2016" and the rest of that bullshit.
Honestly, I've gotten to the point where I feel like people are playing with the word like they play with the word "love" these days. Everyone says it, but nobody means it in a certain context. That doesn't mean it's okay.
"The average person walks by a murderer 36 times in their life."
I'm stating this fact, because people kill often. It happens, but that doesn't mean it's okay. People say the n word. It happens. But that doesn't mean it's okay. People do drugs. It happens, but that doesn't mean it's okay. People harm others. It happens. Still okay? No.
Yeah, I know it's pretty far fetched to compare it to that but I'm making a point.

WHY white people especially should not say this word.
First off: I'm not saying others can't, I'm just saying you shouldn't want to. You shouldn't want to...Scratch that WE shouldn't want to because it's just a reminder of history and even though I've never been a slave, the history of it is offensive and it should also be uncomfortable for others to want to say it. Why would you even want to say it? The next time a person of another race says it, just ask them why they use it? What's the point? You can't replace it with dude, bro, man, etc? There's alternatives. Just ask why. What dies it so for them? It's a fucking word. But it's a word that carries so much more with it.
It also depends on how you use it.
I don't even like the word and sometimes I feel weird about saying it at times (which I rarely do), but out of habit and people I've grown up around, it slips here and there. Most of us aren't even able to understand why we as a race say it, so why should another race feel as though it's alright? It's not even alright for us to do it. Other races would not take the time to understand the word and it's background before they say the word so why should we listen to the "reasons" of why it's okay for them to say it? The n word originates from "nigger". Nigger and negro are not the same meanings. Negro is not really a bad thing. Allow me to educate:
