What could nigger learn from the cross?
"On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suffering and shame;
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain.
Refrain
So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down;
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown".
Hymn: The old rugged cross
Just as the cross has ceased to be an "emblem of suffering and shame",
nigger has ceased to be a term of derision for many.
How did they do it?

First of all the cross is an idol. Millions worship 'idols of wood and stone' just as the Most High predicted.
Secondly, 'niggers', by definition cannot learn. They said to be ignorant, lazy, savages who are burdened with the Hamitic curse to forever be the servants of the white 'race'.
Finally, you cannot resist what you cannot perceive. Somewhere it is written: "My people perish due to a lack of knowledge".
Shalom, family.
I am inviting you to consider, consider, that the cross is only a cross because and when someone say it is an idol and it is not and idol when someone say it is not and idol.
Likewise a nigger is only a nigger when someone one says a nigger is a nigger and a nigger is not a nigger when someone say a nigger is not a nigger.
There is no cross and out there, here or anywhere that is not constituted in language.
Our world is made up and is constituted and given by language - the WORD.
Christians go to church and sing to the old ragged cross that should be an "Emblem of suffering and shame" BUT is now symbol of hope...
Africans on Kwanzaa talk about defining themselves (KUJICHAGULIA) yet they get riotously angry when some "white" folk call them a nigger.
Just as you redefine the cross. Why not stand and redefine the name you answer to.
Why give away your power????
Didn't mama say stick and stone can break your back but what people call speak to their ignorance not yours.
Language - WORDS - is the only creative tool.
Through language we create ourselves, just as god, it is said, created everything: "Let there be light."
Change your language and change the world.
