I despise that word...... I would rather my kids say fuck you to someone as to use this word. I hate the word, I don't like what it implies, and yes I know that it can be used to describe any race or color, but I still hate it.

I just moved from a county that was ALL White, my kids went to schools where this word was used daily and I hated it. At the time we moved into this hell hole, we had literally no choice but I didn't want my kids raised this way, makes me sick at my stomach just thinking about it.

I judge people by WHO they are and not what color they are and I want my kids to think the same way, if they don't like someone then it is because of who this person is and what they have done to them personally and not by the color of their skin.

I hate racism and think our time could be better spent trying to make a BETTER world for our kids than teaching them to hate. I was raised and had some of the best friends in the world that were of all different nationalities.

The only time I think I have ever even THOUGHT of using this word was when I was working in a factory years ago, there was a Black Lady, and I say lady because she and I ended up to be pretty good friends, but when I first met her she let me know in no uncertain terms that I was not liked by her, I asked her why. She proceeded to let me know that she hated ALL white people because of what they have done to her people........ in which I simply replied "I am almost full blooded Cherokee Indian, what in the hell have MY people done to you?" and walked off......... I turned back and looked at her and she had the strangest look on her face.

Three days later she approached me, and while I was wondering what the hell was going to happen next, she said to me, "I am so sorry to have judged you, I didn't know and it was unfair of me to make that judgement." You have NO idea how good this made me feel and she and I were friends from then on............ but I would be willing to bet that NO ONE had ever even bothered with her before this.

I am not saying I changed the world that day, but I damn sure changed her way of thinking because after this, she was so much easier to get along with and she turned out to be a very sweet lady, she just had "learned behovior" as in her family had raised her to hate........... it was right then that I decided that MY kids are NOT going to be raised like this and I do the very best I can to see to it they don't hate because of skin color.

I have been the target of reverse racism too, but how do you change things by hatered? I don't hate anyone for hating me because I am white. What I DO hate is people who raise their kids to hate based on something so trivial as the color of one's skin. It puts a nasty feeling in my gut.
