Outrage Over "Nigger Brown" Couch
 
Quote:

TORONTO, Ontario (AP) -- Doris Moore was shocked when her new couch was delivered to her Toronto home with a label that used a racial slur to describe the dark brown shade of the upholstery.

The situation was even more alarming for Moore because it was her 7-year-old daughter who pointed out "nigger brown" on the tag.

"My daughter saw the label and she knew the color brown, but didn't know what the other word meant. She asked, 'Mommy, what color is that?' I was stunned. I didn't know what to say. I never thought that's how she'd learn of that word," Moore said.

The mother complained to the furniture store, which blamed the supplier, who pointed to a computer problem as the source of the derogatory label

Kingsoft Corp., a Chinese software company, acknowledged its translation program was at fault and said it was a regrettable error.

"I know this is a very bad word," Huang Luoyi, a product manager for the Beijing-based company's translation software, told The Associated Press in a telephone interview.

He explained that when the Chinese characters for "dark brown" are typed into an older version of its Chinese-English translation software, the offensive description comes up.

"We got the definition from a Chinese-English dictionary. We've been using the dictionary for 10 years. Maybe the dictionary was updated, but we probably didn't follow suit," he said.

Moore, who is black, said Kingsoft's acknowledgment of a mistake does not make her feel better.

"They should know what they are typing, even if it is a software error," she said. "In order for something to come into the country, don't they read it first? Doesn't the manufacturer? The supplier?"

Romesh Vanaik, owner of Vanaik Furniture, where Moore bought the sofa, said it has been a best seller. He said he checked his stock but found no other couch with the offensive label.

"It's amazing. I've been here since 1972 and I never knew the meaning of this word," said Vanaik, a native of India.
read the rest at CNN.
What a crazy coincidence: a black family buys the only brown couch labeled "nigger brown" by a Chinese factory using old Chinese-to-English translations.

The world is a crazy place.

Why is it that niggers can't bounce back from being called a nigger? She sounds like she will be emotionally scarred because she bought a nigger brown couch.

Summonmaster Apr 20, 2007 12:31 AM

Ouch! That's also true how it shouldn't purely be a computer error. Someone along the line has to proofread at least to make sure the labels aren't incorrect :s As frequently as the word is thrown out in a joking context, it's basically just as bad as naming a couch "porn sex sofa" or something, and having a kid stumble onto that.
Pretty offensive.

That movie looks awesome. And honestly, I can't stop laughing at the name nigger brown couch. That is hilarious.


They're Chinese who probably know very little, if any English at all. Though I doubt this will get as much attention as the nappy headed hos remark that Imus said.

Gumby Apr 20, 2007 12:41 AM

Something to keep in mind is that in Chinese there is no difference between black, negro, or nigger... they use the same word for all of that 黑 (black) 人 (person). Also certain ideas and stereotypes that are frowned upon in the US are common and accepted in China.

Shut the fuck up you Asian-yiffing sack of shit.

So the black woman in the article is black, but you're going to go ahead and use a racial slur to describe her? Oh, it's the fuck on.

I'm sorry, normally this shit is something I'd let slide, especially if it were one of the thousand racial jokes topics in the Sewers, but this here's General Discussion. I realize there's some humor in the topic and the article's content, but that doesn't necessarily excuse you from outright generalizing an entire group of people with a derogatory term.

It's disturbing to see racism like that, so yes, I can understand this woman's feelings. It's like constantly being reminded that yes, the world thinks little of you as a whole, even though they don't openly acknowledge it.

"Oh, they're niggers. They're brown like niggers. Don't they look like apes with those big lips and nappy hair?"

It's so fucking easy to make fun of people who look different than you, isn't it dumbshit? Well newsflash, you fair-weathered chink, people can make fun of you rice-eating faggots just the same. Get off your high horse and open your eyes.

OH WAIT. YOU ASIAN.

It's a fucking word, she needs to get over it. It's like her whole life is ruined because of a single moment, it was probably an accident.

Quote:

Moore, 30, has three young children, and said the issue has taken a toll on her family.

"Something more has to be done. We don't just need a personal apology, but someone needs to own up to where these labels were made, and someone needs to apologize to all people of color," Moore said. "I had friends over from St. Lucia yesterday and they wouldn't sit on the couch."
That's the lulziest part right there. It has taken a toll on her family?
Fucking pathetic.

Why is it when nigger is used some idiot states it demeans all black people. I hate when people speak for me, then again I guess it's easier to argue a point when you claim you have the support of a whole race of people behind you.

It's not like the woman's ALERTING THE INTERNETS (the highest authority on Earth) or BAAAAAAAAAAAAWing like a preteen Linkin Park fan. She was genuinely offended. Is that so hard to understand?

And not everyone is as 'immune' to the negativity the word 'nigger' carries, or are you too stock full of your own shit to realize this?

You know that's probably it. I have never understood it and never will. It's impossible for me to get. Seriously.

In my eyes whoever gets overly offended and lets it 'take a toll' on them or their family is a whiny pussy.

What I mean here is that I wish Al Sharpton or whomever is championing 'black power' for the week would say "That word offends me. Me only! I don't like it. Apologize to me." Not so hard really. I don't need an apology from Imus, the Chinese, or whoever.

Well yeah, that annoys the piss out of me, too. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson (whom I respected before he went on this weird 'black community leader' tirade) seem to take it upon themselves to stand up and get all pseud-King on people over dumb shit that it really gets out of hand.

I also don't get why the media and even some black folk refer to these guys as leaders in the black community ANYWAY. It's like, if you've got money and a big mouth, you're in charge.

So you used to respect them before they became leaders in the black community? What else has either of them done? They've been the assholes that stir the pot as long as I can remember.

Jesus Christ. Stop wasting time on being SO OFFENDED by a Chinese couch color which was lost in translation. Why not spend more energy on doing something productive instead of trying to play up your 15 minutes of fame and lawsuits.

Not everyone/thing that says prints "nigger" is out to demean black people, but keep in mind that word took about 200 years or more to downgrade from "ultimate insult" to just "nasty insult".

I have to agree with Klaus. Lord knows if the couch was cracker white, every lame-ass comedian from here to the ends of the earth would be using it for fuel in the equally lame-ass comedy shtick. Double standard much?

It's just a fucking word, and what's more an error that was caused due to translation issues. Oh noes the word nigger was used by accident and I'm black! Time for the lawsuit.

I agree that the woman is wrong for suing, especially since it was a friggin accident, but I don't agree with "it's just a word."


It's not like words have meaning, right? Words have no meaning at all!! Hmm www.dictionary.com

lord-of-shadow Apr 21, 2007 01:13 AM

Yes, the word has meaning and has the mild potential to traumatize an entire family. Maybe. But to get offended over an obvious mistake that was explained reasonably and satisfactory to the point that they need to sue and make a scene of themselves is ridiculous. The only person at fault here is this mother.

I agree. It's not as though someone said--"Hey, a black person's ordering this. Let's send this one to her."

It was a mistake. And HOW anal is it for people not to want to sit on the couch?

Okay, I just read the rest of the article. The woman wants the people responsible to "own up" to the mistake. THEY ALREADY DID! The software company said--"That's our fault. We apologize. It is regrettable."

So now she wants money that could come 6 months to two years from now? Sheesh!

Hmm. Do I type a furious reply and say how many people here don't seem to 'get' racism? Like how they think theres really nothing wrong with the word nigger, it's just a word, a damn word that black people been plugging for years anyway, damn coons they use it themselves? (even though the spelling is with an a) How people seem to think that every (although some do admitedly) black person who gets offended is just looking for attention and 'overreacting' just 'over a silly little word that school kids and thugs use in the playground'? How if the story was about a woman getting money over the use of the word bitch, they'd be more sympathetic? How people need to stop relying on the media and (lol) start thinking for themselves? How we can all make the world a better place, by Recycling? How only they can prevent forest fires? How to do the level select for Sonic 1?

Or, do I sit back and laugh at the description as 'nigger brown couch'? Lol!

Honestly, I'd just settle for an apology from the couch company, and that they didn't do it again. I doubt I'd try to sue over it. Seems like a dumb mistake from the chinese carpet company that they're going to rectify anyways.

Unfortunely, the word cracker is never going to mean as much to white people, as the word nigger does to black people. It's not just the word it's the history blah blah blah. You all KNOW. Just as if the couch was labled as 'Every Nazi's dream!', the word Nazi would just be enough for Jewish people to get angry.

But if I knew an asian person who was offended by the word 'paki' and he thought he could get money, and he was willing to share with me, I'd say GO FOR IT!

So, like, that whole, "Nigger" issue, I'm thinking, you know, since it's really from the American South, can it really be a big deal for a Canadian black person? Does it have the same connotations? Do English black people, like black people in Britain, get offended by the word "Nigger"? Really?

Also, Sonic 3, it's up-down-left-right, up-down-left-right till you hear the "ding', then you do A+C (i think it's A+C, might be all three...)

Yes, that is true but why not sue? Why not do so much and not only waste money but pump the economy? She sues, she wins, her lawyer gets paid and then the company has to raise prices cause they lost the lawsuit!

It's a win win. LOL.

Either way, the subject is funny to me. It might be racist, funny. It's just cause the asians are like *Scratches the back of his head* Nigger is our way of saying it's a black/brown couch!

Maybe she should have bought a couch from america, LOL!

Oh and about the jew thing, I've seen many people throw around 'that's jewish' regardless if they are jews or not so it's become one of those words no one cares about especially on the net.

And lol @ the jew couch joke.

There were no black slaves in Canada (as far as I know), but there certainly was black oppression. Black people were discriminated to a level that would give "nigger" the same connotations.

Now I know it's easy for me to speak out of my cracker-white mouth, but I think black people are pushing themselves back a few years each time someone becomes (willingly or not is irrelevant) offended by the racial slur. Obviously, the world has changed, and we know that what we had done in the past was wrong. There are a few people who still think that black people were born to pick cotton, but there are also people who thing it's their duty to massacre 32 people in a University. I realize that blacks have a much darker history than whites, but every time a black person connotates "nigger" with "worthless big-lipped slave" is doing their race a disservice. They should be pushing themselves to a point where nigger is taken the same way cracker would be, not using it as an excuse to get money, press, etc etc. (Yes, I know some get genuinely offended, but this is where they need be strong and push themselves ahead).

It's kind of like gays. I have no problem with gays, but every time they have their Gay-Pride parades, It goes against the idea that they are just like you and I. If we want everyone to be equal, we can't have these minority/ethnic groups sticking themselves out like a sore thumb.

Spoiler:
Well, If you're a negro, it doesn't help that your nigger-brown.

No. It wouldn't. Can we please stop all of these generalizations of an entire race's reaction to racist situations? Way to perpetuate the racial divide.

Do English black people, like black people in Britain, get offended by the word "Nigger"? Really?

That's an interesting angle on it. I'd think they'd only be offended by it from a "that word's an insult; why the fuck are you throwing it at me?" point. Unless, of course, they want to cash in anyway like this woman is doing. Also, I really doubt the blacks here in Guatemala (there are quite a few on the Atlantic coast) would give a fuck about that word.

(even though the spelling is with an a)

This is like the tenth time that I know of that this topic's come up. I'm sure most people understand the horrible meaning the word carried originally and the fact that when races outside of a black one use it the word is empowered in almost the same way. Unlike when our friendly black represenatives on BET say "nigga please," which is cool.
Quote:

How people seem to think that every (although some do admitedly) black person who gets offended is just looking for attention and 'overreacting' just 'over a silly little word that school kids and thugs use in the playground'?
You know, me personally, it's not until I start hearing about these fuckers suing (or things of that nature) for "recompensation" that I get irritated. I think she had the right to be angered... How is something like that overlooked by so many people for so many years? But damn, these fuckers are fixing the mistake yet she probably just ignored that fact.
Quote:

How if the story was about a woman getting money over the use of the word bitch, they'd be more sympathetic?
Have their actually been cases like that?

I just wish other races in the world had words with that sort of meaning you could use to insult them. Far worse shit has happened to people around the world than African slavery, yet they never seem to be able to cash in because they don't have a word for themselves as powerful as "nigger."

You should learn how racism works and why it's such a touchy issue.

well, Merv, instead of being useless and just calling me and Sonic 3 dumb (fyi, you spelled it wrong, you've got 76 extra U's and a space in there for some reason), you might make a simple statement to exhibit what we might be misunderstanding about the issue of racism in America... and Canada; something to help explain why we might be incorrect in some fashion. You know, like a fucking point. Not to start flaming, but hey, why not join the discussion?

Now, I get how racism works and that, in this country (being America) I (being white) am not allowed to call a black person "Nigger" because it's hugely offensive, due to the vast history of oppression. That's what I understand, and that's what I agree too. I also understand that black oppression didn't actually happen world wide, which is why I brought up the UK, which is why I asked the question are black people in foreign countries as offended by the word as black people in America are?

I hate this crap. It's just another way for people to get their panties in a bunch and flip out over nothing. I love the picture though. "O DESPAIR. I bought a nigger brown couch." Pain in her cross eyes and all.

I am also going to ignore Sonic's little tirade, too. "Why don't people get racism?!"

No one is dying over being called a nigger. What happened generations ago by completely different people in a completely different time should end there and then. Enough with the slavery card. It's over. It's BEEN over. The South lost. The end.

Whew, Goddamn, my question isn't about racism in other countries, it's about the word Nigger (in other countries), which was kinda the damn topic (and Devo, I'm gonna assume you meant South Africa, and not the entire continent).

I guess nobody really knows, cause all this grief seems to be about shit i'm not even talking about.

But it's not the end, Sass. No, black people are not slaves now, but racism is alive and well, and you are either kidding yourself or blind if you don't see it.

It is okay, or have you not ever heard any mainstream, popular rap music? Oh wait, I forgot there's a double fucking standard.

Racism is alive and well indeed, but the media only seems to pay attention when it involves the word "nigger" or blacks. Meanwhile, we have a Hot Pockets ad campaign with featuring an "old Asian man" caricature and nobody bats an eye. Casual, perhaps subconscious racism against other minority groups and even whites persists, but once there's anything that even remotely involves blacks, the media and Al Sharpton are all over it like lawyers chasing after an ambulance.

I completely agree with your point. My issue was mainly with Sass specifically, due to her never-ending quest to make the word nigger an acceptable term to throw around.

From the earliest usage it was "the term that carries with it all the obloquy and contempt and rejection which whites have inflicted on blacks" [cited in Gowers, 1965]. But as black inferiority was at one time a near universal assumption in Eng.-speaking lands, the word in some cases could be used without insult. More sympathetic writers late 18c. and early 19c. seem to have used black (n.) and, after the American Civil War, colored person. Also applied by Eng. settlers to dark-skinned native peoples in India, Australia, Polynesia. The reclamation of the word as a neutral or positive term in black culture, often with a suggestion of "soul" or "style," is attested first in the Amer. South, later (1968) in the Northern, urban-based Black Power movement. Variant niggah, attested from 1925 (without the -h, from 1969), is found usually in situations where blacks use the word. Nigra (1944), on the other hand, reflects a pronunciation in certain circles of Negro, but meant to suggest nigger, and is thus deemed (according to a 1960 slang dictionary) "even more derog. than 'nigger.' " Slang phrase nigger in the woodpile attested by 1800; "A mode of accounting for the disappearance of fuel; an unsolved mystery" [R.H. Thornton, "American Glossary," 1912]. Nigger heaven, "the top gallery in a (segregated) theater" first attested 1878 in ref. to Troy, N.Y.

" 'You're a fool nigger, and the worst day's work Pa ever did was to buy you,' said Scarlett slowly. ... There, she thought, I've said 'nigger' and Mother wouldn't like that at all." [Margaret Mitchell, "Gone With the Wind," 1936]

Used in combinations (e.g. nigger-brown, nigger-head, nigger-toe) since 1840s for various dark brown or black hues or objects; euphemistic substitutions (e.g. Zulu) began to appear in these senses c.1917.

Hmm... Looks like their Chinese-Engrish dictionary is really out of date, but it's not just a random piece if Engrish.

I guess most other races don't have the abundance of characters that are willing to make a media circus out of things like this. I like to think most people realize that you can't change the world by force and realize that human beings are inherently fucked up like this and things like this will never stop or change. Knowing that gives me a great peace because I realize that things are how they are and there's not really much we can do.

Devo's right, though I don't think the word has the same power anywhere else as in the states. Probably because of the freedom of expression. Though it really doesn't seem like the word was a big deal until after the Civil Rights movement.

Granted, I have never spent any time studying the history of Africa or it's colonization in the late eighteenth century, thought I was aware that English, French, Portuguese, Spanish, German, Belgian, and Italian colonies existed. Now, I know how bad it sucks to be a colony, I'm an American. But that's another issue, not really based in racism.

Now, not having a degree in African-American studies, or the general nature of Racism at large, I'm going to have to defer to the end-all of knowledge: Wikipedia. I went ahead and typed the word "Nigger" in there and found out some interesting facts that negate your arguments and even answer the questions I was asking.

As it turns out, back in the day, like way back in that late eighteenth century days when those colonies existed, the variations of "nigger" that were used weren't actually considered derogatory. "Nigger", and it's variations, were only used as an identifier, similar to the way we use "black" today. It wasn't until the 1960's, in the American North (as it turns out) that "nigger" became offensive, and it was during the ensuing race war that it gathered all the negativity it now holds today. Listen carefully now, Devo:

The only usage outside the United States that I found was that in a little place called Australia, and its neighbor New Zealand (where's Old Zealand, btw?) where "nigger" is used in casual conversation between good friends, both black and white, though it's considered impolite to use it to refer to a stranger

So it would seem that, though America doesn't hold a monopoly on oppressing people, it mostly does on the word "nigger" (though it's origins, of course, are foreign). And, as Leknaat pointed out, the woman in question is from New York, which makes all of this irrelevant.

I was just making the point that America used to be a colony too, and we hold no aggravation towards the British now-a-days, so i was basically saying Devo's point that the entire continent of Africa was oppressed in the late eighteenth century was not much of a point at all.

True, they were colonized a while after America was, but the idea of colonization is still the same, be it 16th or 18th century.

Plus, in my understanding, a lot of modern-day African life (i'm assuming you mean the absolute horror that it is) is mainly due to Africans.

I'm not wrong in thinking Africa isn't a colony anymore, right?

whinehurst Apr 22, 2007 03:48 PM

All right, Devo, until you actually provide some evidence to support that claim, I'm going to have to go ahead and say you're wrong. Did you even read the post where i pointed out where you are wrong on that? Let me say it again, since you have some sort of reading disorder. "Nigger" didn't become offensive until the Civil Rights Movement in the 1960's in the NORTHERN UNITED STATES. Until then it was used as an IDENTIFIER, like we used the word Black today. This whole fucking argument is over the WORD. Not oppression. There's plenty of oppressed people that have shit to do with the word "nigger".

You already said you don't know much about Africa's history, so I don't think it's fair for you to say those dirty niggers are blaming innocents because Americans don't hold a grudge against England.

perhaps you forgotten the freedom fries BS from a few years ago?

Are you seriously using wikipedia for your etymology points? I guess the word is only offensive when whites suddenly become outraged at the usage.

Actually, Wikipedia is quite right in this regard, at least in the word's use in the United States. At one point in time the word "nigger" (derived from the Latin niger, meaning "black") was commonly used as an identifier for various dark-skinned peoples. It did not carry the overt hostility and offensiveness that it does today.

Look at the American novel "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" by Mark Twain, released in 1884, and is regarded as one of the most eloquent attacks on racism ever written. The book also happens to contain the word "nigger" 212 times. The word is casually used as a racial identifier, like the words "colored" or "black" and as a satire on the boorish nature of the white characters in the novel. At any rate, the word certainly was not as outright offensive then as it is today.

*AkirA* Apr 22, 2007 09:19 PM

Disregard this post. Point is, it's not offensive, and never should be.

I know you want to wipe it under the carpet, hey maybe people in Germany are upset because they (sometimes) get labeled as nazis, when that whole Hitler misunderstanding happened before their time. And they get blamed for both world wars, when really you'll see it was all economical. That plus politics, you know it's always politics.

So I can sort of see where you are comming from. I mean, if everyone wants to be equal, why ever have a Black parade, or Black rights, because if a white person did them, that'd be racist. Why can't decent white people have a White Power parade, being proud of and trying to promote more white-only groups? That group the JJJ, is it? They've got the right idea. I understand entirely. That whole segregation incedent happened hundreds of years ago. Damn jigs. Why can't they just let go of the past? Hey they use it themselves, so they can't complain if a white guy calls them a nigger maybe at work or in the street. And besides, dont you know at least one black who's ok with you calling him a nigger and all? So if that one guy can see, why can't they all see? PLUS!!! If you go over many posts here, including my own, you'll see that I describe many situations as 'gay', so just who am I to try to preach? How dare I try stick up for 'those damn dirty choco-faces' when I don't lend a hand to the homosexual community? AND!! You don't see chinese people getting worked up every time the word 'chink' is used, do ya?

Speaking of double standards. Isn't it kinda funny that they can have the 'race' of your choice groups or frats/sorinities. But yet if there is a white one, you get called out for being a racist? Isn't quite sad but very funny? It recently happened at the college I am attending to. It's quite funny, the dean told them they had to break it up/not meet anymore.

Reading through this thread I'm reminded of what I did when I was in 3rd grade:

We were doing some Black History Month coloring activity with crayons and what not. Anyway, I had Martin Luther King Jr. to color in. At the time I was thinking "Hmmm, he's black, sooooo...." and I grabbed a BLACK CRAYON and colored MLK Jr. PITCH BLACK. You could not see shit on his face, he looked like a shadow. I showed my teacher when I was done and she laughed off and on for the rest of the day about it. I had no idea what I did wrong, so I just left it at that. It was only after I looked at my classmates' pictures and saw that everyone colored their black guy/girl nigger-brown that I realized what I did wrong.
And that, my friends, is why Black History Month should be renamed to Nigger-Brown Month.

The end.

From now on, the company should micro manage, whip in hand.

Or just get a good laugh from it and let the boys know they need to settle the fuck down.

Well I can see why they're mad because nigger is a bad word to use because of slavery and it offends black african americans of color.

So I don't use that word and I think that no one else should because it's stupid.

What the FUCK are they doing?

This is so simple.... Nigger means uneducated... If you're uneducated then you're a Nigger, Being black, white or anything. The only people who are offended are Niggers who KNOW they're Niggers

NiggA... is something different... White people have Dudes... Black people have Niggas... Simple as that
A Nigga is just a black dude

Auditioning for a Michael Jackson video?

C'mon, Devo. It takes a lot of effort to hit the "period."

Leknaat May 15, 2007 01:42 AM

Maybe we're supposed to put the extras where they belong?

Lol... Exactly........
And also... there were Sand Niggers which reffered to Arabs (which I thought was kinda mean) I hate how people make fun of other people. It takes more strenghth to open your mouth to comment than to shutup and look away.
(Or Maybe I just think that way due to my nigger complex)

Also, I've heard that it takes more muscles to frown than to smile. So if everyone smiles, and not frown, will that make them lazy? If so... everybody that smiles from now on got the Nigger complex... cause they're to lazy to frown.

BURN!!!!!!
