Redefining the "N" Word

Bag om Redefining the "N" Word

Nigga" the most controversial word to come out of the English language. Some hate it, some love it, and some just don't care. Yet, it has become one of the "most widely used words to define the modern black in America today. The word "Nigga" is grossly offensive to some but not to others. The word may regularly be used by one group but its use is frowned upon by another. However, as a diverse people, we have one thing in common with the word nigga. It is part of our culture and our history. How do we take the conflicting messages of what this peculiarly ambiguous word means and bring resolution to them? We do it by opening an honest dialogue that includes both blacks and whites and every ethnicity in between. This book attempts to do that by placing you right in the middle of that cultural battle.
