l was trying to make a point, that it's the suppression of the word that gives it the power, the violence, the viciousness.
Dig?
lf President Kennedy would just go on television and say "l'd like to introduce you to all the niggers in my cabinet." And if he'd just say ''nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger'' to every nigger he saw, ''Boogie, boogie, boogie, nigger, nigger, nigger, nigger,'' till it didn't mean anything any more!
Then you'd never be able to make a black kid cry because somebody called him a nigger in school.
