The "nigga" Jar

Nigga This. Nigga That. The "n word" is used so frequently by people in our day to day lives. Think.. When was the last time you heard it? How was it used? How did it make you feel? Or can you even remember? "My nigga..." - are you really my nigga or are you just "another nigga" trying to make it. You may not understand that because this was written.. "Strictly for my niggaz"

No matter how you twist it... Twirl it... Spin it.. Or even shoot it.. Its all the same thing. Its a word that has lost its meaning. Its lost its edge. Its lost its power. Everytime its used a little more power is taken away... Not just from the word... But from the race that it represents.

What's a nigga? And where did this word nigga come from?

Research... Research... Research.. Feed your mind. Do you know what it means to be a nigga?



GOOGLE the origins of the word NIGGA.



While scratching my fingernails against the walls of history...I came up with an idea. Start the movement to restore what's been taken away from the niggas. So I came up with the idea of "THE NIGGA JAR". A tax on the word that's been drained of its energy for years.



This is how the nigga jar works:



Everytime a person (black/white/pink/yellow/brown/purple) says the word nigga, a monetary donation is collected. This monetary donation is taken and put in to a jar. This jar is the counted when full and donated to a charity, school, or community effort to improve the lives of African Americans, better known as "the niggas of American Society". Because the word nigga has taken so much from us... It is only right that we make it give back.



The donation would be 10 cents/nigga spoke for descendants of Africans. (Black People) and 25 cents for the non-african descendants.



Where will you keep your nigga jar?
