Yes that was me. Ok, as an adult I understand where your coming from if the word was ****/wanker/prick... something along those lines. But the word ****** is in direct reference to your skin colour, picking you out because of the colour of your skin and trait you cannot change.

Just because there is no slavery now, does not mean the word does not get used for the same effect it was before. Just because this is the year 2007 does not mean racists don't exist, does not mean that black people do not come across barriers and situations in which they are still not accepted because of the colour of their skin.

We shouldn't have to just sit back and accept it.
