Black pepper (Piper nigrum) is a flowering vine in the family Piperaceae, cultivated for its fruit, which is usually dried and used as a spice and seasoning. The fruit, known as a peppercorn when dried, is approximately 5 millimetres (0.20 in) in diameter, dark red when fully mature, and, like all drupes, contains a single seed. Peppercorns, and the powdered pepper derived from grinding them, may be described simply as pepper, or more precisely as black pepper (cooked and dried unripe fruit), green pepper (dried unripe fruit) and white pepper (dried ripe seeds).
Black pepper is native to SouthEast Asia and China, and is extensively cultivated there and elsewhere in tropical regions. Currently Vietnam is the world's largest producer and exporter of pepper, producing 34% of the world's Piper nigrum crop as of 2008.
Dried ground pepper has been used since antiquity for both its flavour and as a medicine. Black pepper is the world's most traded spice. It is one of the most common spices added to European cuisine and its descendants. The spiciness of black pepper is due to the chemical piperine. It is ubiquitous in the industrialized world, often paired with table salt.

They all have their own problems, such as finance, harrassment, personal safety, and self doubt. Additionally, campus life seems to be causing a problem for everyone: racism. Students, already under pressure to perform in the classroom, on the track, or in front of their friends, are strained to the breaking point by prejudice, inexperience, and misunderstanding.

[after Malik referred to him as a "sell-out"]::Professor Phipps: So, Mr. Williams thinks I am an Uncle Tom, hmmm? Well, well, well. What does that have to do with your ability to place a comma in its proper place or put a period at the end of a sentence, hmmm?
Professor Phipps: Your own presence should be motivation enough.
Malik: As a black man in America, my stress comes from everywhere. Recognize. Take a look around you. Look at this, Columbus, it disgusts me. Fool wasn't nothin' but a thief, mass murder. He done slaughtered millions of native Americans, and we done got a holiday and university named after his honor.
Professor Phipps: One's primary purpose at university level is to learn how to think.
Professor Phipps: Without struggle, there is no progress. (quoting Frederick Douglas)
Taryn: We need to get past just complaining about university security. You know? I'm tired of hearing women cry for someone else to save them. Think what that means. Why do you need someone else to save you? Think about saving yourself.
Kristen Connor: Look, um... why don't I stay with you tonight? We could stay up and talk...::Taryn: Are you sure you're ready for that? Don't do it, just cause your fascinated. I want you to be sure.
[Malik confronts Remy at the door of his room]::Malik Williams: Remy is it? Man, I gotta admit you've been really polite by staying out of my way. But you ain't been honest. See I figure, it's not what a person says it's what they think. So in my mind, you've been walking around here calling me a nigger in you head. Am I right?::Remy: I got nothing to say to you man.::[Remy tries to close the door, Malik forces it open]::Malik Williams: Oh, I think you do! You want to say what you feel don't you? You think I'm a nigger? You be a man and call me one to my face!::[after a few moments of silence, Malik psyches Remy out]::Malik Williams: I thought so. You're just a punk-ass white boy... with a fucked-up haircut. Bitch.
Fudge: [Referring to the Frederick Douglass book Malik is borrowing] Read it for yourself, and not for some damn class.
Remy: How would you feel if I came in your room and I started playing my music.::Fudge: I wouldn't feel nothing. 'Cause it'd never happen.::Remy: Why not?::Fudge: 'Cause I'll whoop your ass. That's why.
