Latest on "negro"

[W Brewer]

WB:  <<Can we still use the A-A word?   Jist wundrin'.>>
WG: <<Why does it matter to you? Are some of your best friends n-words? Do
you otherwise expect to have occasion to speak to black Americans about
black Americans? If so, then use whatever terms you ordinarily use. If not,
then use whatever terms you ordinarily use. Who is included in that "we,"
BTW?>>
WB: Judge not, lest ye be judged.
