Answer:
6) Yes, I do have some type of connection with the word actually. I'm half black. Thankfully, I have never been called the word. I do/do not use the word sometimes (optional sentence). I never use it in a negative manner though. (Corresponds to the optional sentence). I would most definately take offense to the word if I was called it and i would retaliate by (your choice). I had first heard of the word when I was (whatever age you were) and was taught that it wasn't appropriate to (i dont know exactly what u were taught with it. i was taught that i shouldnt risk saying it around darker skinned people because they most likely wont know that i am half black).
The one thing i can't do is bring in evidence from the book bc i lost it. i thought i still had it but its not here. Im sorry. But i hope what i had put in helped at least a bit. I would suggest finding some things from the chapters where she first heard the word and explained where some parts u agree from ur own point of view with a small bit of explanations here and there. :)
