For instance, the word that identified her and several African Americans was the “n” word and for me the word that identifies with my group is Oaxacan yet, both these words are used within the same…

As Douglas Adams so succinctly posited, the meaning of life is 42. However, as the characters in his novel soon realize, the answer to the meaning of life is useless without a properly - and, perhaps, a more specifically - formed question.
