Good question, I can only answer the first.Niger is latin for black. If you look in the kjv of the bible you will see that in Acts 13:1 it mentions of certain phropets and teachers, simeon one of them was called a niger. possibly this could of been the origin of whites calling blacks niggers since many have used the kjv to justify acts of racism. Nigger is a derivation of the word niger.
