Americans seem to think this was a universally pejorative word. It just did not have the same strength of feeling outside the US. Although I don't think it was ever a positive word.

When I think of how far this country has come as a whole it often makes me think of just how little it takes to divide us. When I think about the book written by Dr. Maya Angelou, "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings." I must say intelligence goes further than a full tank of gas. Another great book to read is titled, "The Cocoa Plantations America's Chocolate Secret...forced child labor..."

The funny thing is that the N word is used between African-Americans as a term of comradeship. Niger the Latin root simply means dark.

Gerran, hello and just so that you are correctly informed not all brown or black people of which l am use this term. l know that this applies to anyone without the ability to create a conscious thought. l think that it's sad that some still use the word however that is their choice. l don't allow it from anyone 😣 personally period.

Gerran, Not funny. It makes me cringe to hear people use it. When a student in any of my classes would use it they learned real hard from their peers not to.

Player #29684811, People today still use n the word and know that negro is Spanish, streaming from Latin, for black. They don't mean to be kind about it either. I have never lived in the south but the wild West.

Under Dog, The word didn’t divide people by its use alone it was cover to act out radical racial deeds with impunity for over 300 plus years.

Jo Aldridge, the word originated to describe one's ethnicity. Slavery in America made the word it is today not the word it self.
