U. of New Hampshire Sorority Free to Sing N-Word ... Never Was an Investigation

The sorority whose members loudly sang Kanye West's "Gold Digger" and included the n-word ... will NOT be punished ... TMZ has learned.

A rep from the University of New Hampshire tells us the Alpha Phi sisters showed poor judgment in the video of them using the n-word, but UNH is not investigating the matter. The rep says the initial report claiming UNH had opened a probe was incorrect -- and there will be no discipline for the sorority.

We're told the women of Alpha Phi have apologized.

If a highly-privileged member of the non-White community complains, the singers will be punished.

This may be a Bellweather moment, far more important than it may first appear. These white kids grow up surrounded by rap videos that scream the ‘N’ word song after song. The so called singers receive music honors and expensive recording contracts. Clothing and shoes carry their names for endorsement.

Why could these same kids, regardless of color sing what they have been hearing, what the media praises as the ‘real voice’ of an oppressed people?
There should not be any list of words that a certain racial group is told that they ‘cannot say’. That is not American or even logical in thought.

If Kanye West can use it, so can they.

They're singing a very well known pop song. Even I know the damn song. They can't do that? Really?

What if they wanted to read aloud passages from Mark Twain? Or Flannery O'Connor? Or Joseph Conrad?

Where does this end? [Spit!]

“If Kanye West can use it, so can they.”

Let’s be blunt. The notion that only black people can say or spell out the word ‘nigger’ is racist and I will not abide it nor should anyone else.

Let them stop using it and so will I. Until then I will use it when it is germane to a discussion because I am offended, triggered, and racially oppressed by the notion that I can’t use the word just because I am white.

Where does this end?

I can answer that with 100% surety.

It ends when we stop it. If it continues, it's because we haven't stopped it.

Shame on them——they did NOTHING to apologize for.

Wow...even the 1926 “Ol’ Man River” from Show Boat went through all kinds of changes because of the N word:

1. Niggahs all work on de Mississippi

2. Darkies all work on de Mississippi

3. Gotta go work on de Mississippi

(I think they left it at #3, but do they even DARE put on that Musical today?

I detest Kanye-——but they just sang HIS song,which is all over the place, and the girls did nothing wrong. They sang a song as it was composed.

Why apologize?

Oh, I’m sure they’d love that, especially if an alpha male is wielding that paddle.
