The “N” word is one of the only words I know that is socially swept under the rug for 1 race to use, but is highly offensive when another race uses it. How do you feel when African Americans use the “N” word as a term of endearment, yet if someone else uses the word then it’s degrading and demoralizing. I mean just think about it, you don’t hear white people calling each other crackers? Or Mexican’s calling each other wet backs? Indian’s saying terrorist. Latino’s calling each other spics. Chinese people calling each other chinks or Japanese people calling each other Japs, and so forth. Do other races do that to each other and say it’s for endearment? How do you feel about any race calling each other Nigga? How did society turn a derogatory term into a term of endearment?
