Now on the other hand, I agree with many others, blacks included, that believe that you can't hold on to the past forever. We as a people definitely need to get over it and move on with our lives.

It did not start out in a derogatory manner. Just cause people say something for so long does not make it correct. Just like ya'll isn't a word but people use it everyday.
