RECLAIMING is when you or your trusted circle consensually address yourselves or each other by a slur to extinguish its oppressive power by bringing it into your identity or culture.
if aimed at other marginalized people non-consensually, that's not reclamation.

Parenting is one of the few jobs where you get to pick your co-workers. It is always your choice who you do that work with. Fire a teammate who thinks 10 minutes of daily effort is sufficient to support any relationship let alone a developing child.

Hudson Williams seems like a very empathetic soul. I hope that a trusted person in his life speaks to him about Nightwing being Romani--and the systemic oppression of our voices and culture.
