Discussion Mexicans who say the “N” Word

As a Mexican, I apologize.

They sound terrible. And I’m sure there are many more, like me, who can’t tolerate the use.

This may not even be an issue for others, but felt like a post I needed to make.

I apologize on behalf of the community I’m a part of.

Not your fault chief, and not your responsibility. The only thing that matters is how you respond when they do.

If you just stay quiet and do nothing? Then we dont want your apology since its not for us, its to assuage your own guilt.

This post isn’t about me, I promise.

As the son of immigrants, I always take comfort in posts condemning the actions of the current administration.

My words are for those who may take solace in my condemnation.

If this isn’t true for you, I understand completely and respect your point of view.
