I think OP is talking about how in paper towns theres a vignette towards the latter half of the book where john green breaks the story to rant about how the belgian colonists painted "glorious landscape portraits of blood on the broad backs of niggers".

wait does Johnny boy really say "niggers"? LOL I always thought he was a cuck but that's kind of based. Although I'm sure he's only saying nigger to make a "le epic anti racist political statement", but whatever.

Would have loved to have John Green say that to me in a conversation, and me to have the wit to say "So you're comparing people to Cheerios. Would you say they're comparable to, I don't know, say Skittles, too?"

I always loved the part in Outer Dark where the anti hero wanders up to a white man and two black men working in a field in the pre civil war south and asks the white man if he’s the overseer.
And the white man answers. - Why no, I work for these here niggers.
