      Actually my cousin’s friend Jeremy gave me a one-time pass as long as I don’t tell his mom he threw rocks into Ms. Jones’s garden, but aside from that I agree.

      Fun Fact: The n-word was used against anyone with dark enough skin, including Latinos, Indians, Native Americans, and Pacific Islanders.

      It’s kind of wild as a modern American reading people like Rudyard Kipling and having him just drop a casual n-word about Indians, honestly.
