I'm not telling Bill Cosby he shouldn't be upset at the ubiquitous use of the word in the black community. Thunder is speaking in absolutes about it. I am not. Of course black people can still use it in an insulting manner towards each other. That isn't the common context it is used in though.
This is an absolute, but thanks for clarifying.
It's not self-loathing. They are taking power away from the word when they use it. It is the context it is used in that is important.
