--- Quote from: Javier on August 14, 2010, 07:16:20 PM ---I've had English teachers read the word "nigger" in reading a passage of a novel. I've also had a black teacher allow us to read the word out loud. "It's okay, this is a work of fiction". You gotta be a fucking douchebag to protest this, when it's being used in the classroom for educational purposes. This whole idea that the word is being censored in schools is new to me. Maybe teachers are just censoring themselves, but it's not something that is happening by force.

Could be. I mean offensive words by a teacher shouldnt be used if they arent used for the purpose of education. But if you are teaching about the Civil Rights movement, the word will come up.

Yeah, that will happen as well. So I don't know where this idea that teachers are being censored? New to me, and I work with middle school and high school students.

This is not about teachers being censored by force, but by force through what a parent might say to a principal. "My son/daughter should never have been exposed to this type of language blah blah" type of shit. Many principals act as bureaucrats who would rather keep up appearances than do whats right and tell these over sensitive retards to let the teachers worry about the teaching.
Also, the freedom of speech issue is an important one. If a word/phrase hurts someone's feelings, then it shouldn't be mandated by the govt where they can/cannot say it. Its when the speech crosses into territory of bodily threat/harm that it is and should be illegal. If someone's boss decides it is or isn't ok to use certain types of language, then its up to him and not the government (so says the constitution). I would rather side with protecting people's written and documented rights to be a dumbass and say whatever the fuck they want, then to prop up the "social justice" concept.

WHITE PEOPLE IN AMERICA PRETEND RACISM DOESN'T EXIST IN AMERICA. They pretend like minorities don't feel the oppression.. We've made it funny for us, and for them. So they pretend like everything is all good cuz black people can say nigga and white people can send their kids to college without worrying about being raised around gangs and other stupid ghetto shit. Yeah that's real even
