The N Word
I am a very old senior white male. At 10 years of age I was playing with two black friends when a bully who was white and twice our size started calling my Friends the N word so my friends ran away and so did I.
I never heard the word before this was the first time even though half my school was black.
I went home and asked my Mother what it meant.
She wrote the word down the left side of the page and said .....
The word is an acrostic son it means .....

Pass my Mother's wisdom on to anybody who offends you with this word.
