I taught at an inter city school where blacks would refer to each other as niggah....I would write them up for a racial slur. At first my principle informed me it was not considered a slur among blacks. I resisted and told him if we were going to have different rules for skin color then we were perpetrating the inequality of the races. He leaned back in his chair and said I was absolutely right and he would start giving the same punishment for that term no matter what color the student was. Surprisingly some teachers(black) actually voiced objection The principle made it known in no uncertain terms he would not tolerate the use of that term and would take disciplinary action against any faculty that fail to enforce the rule. The word niggah was pretty rare within a month and several black kids were sent to disciplinary school for it use!!!

Wow... good for him. I’d love to shake that principle’s hand.
