    It’s not that the word ‘nigger’ isn’t still offensive, it’s all about how you use it and who says it to who. I’m black and if a white friend of mine calls me that, I will not get offended because he is not racist and he is not trying to degrade me. The word ‘nigger’ has actually evolved into ‘nigga’ which I find equivilent to ‘dude’, ‘dog’, ‘homey’, or any word along those lines. This word is actually said to all races. I call my white, hispanic, asian, and black friends niggas. In another sense if a black man and a white man get into some type of confrontation and the white man calls him a nigger than their will be problems because the black man will feel as if the white man is trying to degrade him. It’s almost like it has two meanings.
