“The audience for the Daily Wildcat is students
and alumni who should be capable of intelligent thought on such a subject.”

Well, there’s your problem right there.

We know that the n-word once existed. But it ended. Long ago. And those people who boycotted buses in Birmingham, who faced down firehoses and dogs, who were beaten by KKK’ers, who walked across the bridge in Selma …

… a bunch of damn fools. They were wasting their time. All it took was to ban the n-word and then a big rainbow came up and everybody loved each other.

So scrub that word from history. It never existed. And all those people who thought it was real? They were fools. Forget them.
