re: Professor reprimanded for using a chinese word that sounds racist

For Frick's Sake. Tigerdroppings filter blocks out the first four letters of a word that means miser or stingy, and has an etymology in no way related to the N-Word. We have lost all hope

It’s Negra, not negro

I saw a very similar thing play out on the streets of Flushing when a black woman was off the rails thinking that the Chinese female street vendor had called her the 'n' word. The Chinese words for "this and that" is "zega and nega."

She was a Stacy Abrams stunt double.

"In China the common word is 'that, that that that,' so in China it might be 'nega, nega, nega, nega,'" Patton explained to his class. "So there's different words you'll hear in different cultures, but they're vocal disfluencies."

and the whole story is infinitely worse than what the link here says. Im liberal as frick and even I would have been like "are you kidding me with this shite"

In an August 21 email to university administration, students accused the professor of pronouncing the word like the N-word “approximately five times” during the lesson in each of his three communication classes and said he “offended all of the Black members of our Class.”

The students, who identified themselves as “Black MBA Candidates c/o 2022” wrote that they had reached out to Chinese classmates as they were “appalled” by what they had heard.

“It was confirmed that the pronunciation of this word is much different than what Professor Patton described in class,” the students wrote. “The word is most commonly used with a pause in between both syllables. In addition, we have lived abroad in China and have taken Chinese language courses at several colleges and this phrase, clearly and precisely before instruction is always identified as a phonetic homonym and a racial derogatory term, and should be carefully used, especially in the context of speaking Chinese within the social context of the United States.”

The students accused the professor of displaying “negligence and disregard” in using the word and said he “conveniently stop[ped] the zoom recording right before saying the word,” calling his actions calculated.

“Our mental health has been affected,” the group continued. “It is an uneasy feeling allowing him to have the power over our grades. We would rather not take his course than to endure the emotional exhaustion of carrying on with an instructor that disregards cultural diversity and sensitivities and by extension creates an unwelcome environment for us Black students.”

The students added that the incident “has impacted our ability to focus adequately on our studies.”

“No matter what way you look at this, the word was said multiple times today in three different instances and has deeply affected us. In light of the murders of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor and the recent and continued collective protests and social awakening across the nation, we cannot let this stand,” the group concluded, before calling for an immediate remedy to the situation.

Go ahead and fire him. I'm sure he won't miss it when he makes millions rapping.

Absolutely, hysterically, absurd.

Not to mention that there are many hundreds of Chinese students at USC. How are they supposed to communicate at all in their language without using the word "that?" It's one of the most common words in any language. Take "that" away and communication becomes almost impossible.

The university is essentially saying that Chinese language itself is racist. (By the way, Koreans say "nee ga" as a way of saying "you.")

I hope this swings the Asian-American vote strongly in favor of the R's in November.

Literally no one does that but cookie for you for sure.

Why is it that libtards think black people need all this help and protection and safe space? They must think they are really inferior.

I remember a DC city counsel member used the word ****rdly and people even admitted he used the world appropriately but he was pressured to resign anyway.

So what is it that we have these special rules for black people? Note the word special.
