Does anyone have the number of times the "N" word is used and if this broke records for the most uses of the word???
I don't know a lot about anything but I know a little about practically everything

It WOULD be interesting to know.
Here's to those who wish me well...
Dang, it was just shown on Bet yesterday. Surprised no one has counted. From what I understand only blacks are allowed to say it and only to each other.

Well, blacks seem to think they can. Seems like it's every other word they say now, but God forbid anyone else use it.
sharedoubt it broke records...
it Was the 1970s...
You kind of have to remember the evolution of the 'appropriate terminology', at various stages
-- Ni--er (not sure what if any 'censors' are in place)
-- Ne-ro
-- Colored
-- African American
-- Black
were all considered 'appropriate'
anything before the 1980s had a lot more freedom to us it... Mel Brooks dropped it liberally in Blazing Saddles... and one assumes plenty of 'black movies' still have the 'freedom' to use it today
