It has been established as a degrading word towards the black race and using it offends. If you are: A) not black using the word shows that you think the black race is a lesser race. B) black using the word shows that you think your OWN RACE is a lesser race. Either way, it should not be used. The N word is offensive no matter who uses it. It has been established as a degrading word towards the black race and using it offends.

If you are:
A) not black
using the word shows that you think the black race is a lesser race.

B) black
using the word shows that you think your OWN RACE is a lesser race.

Either way, it should not be used.

He is extremely not funny and during the show I attending he rambled on and on, while he got drunker and drunker, about how he has sooo many famous and powerful friends and about how white people are all his children. He went over his set time by at least 2 hours, most of the club got up and left near the beginning of his set. I have seen Eddie Griffin at a comedy club before.

As a Black woman, all words are given force by their context. I called myself a bitch while joking with another female friend of mine. SHE understood. Not everybody does. If you are using words to hurt, you already know what you're doing. Don't play dumb. If you are brain damaged, don't risk further abuse by walking in a room full of Black people and yell" What's up, my nigga's?" I think that music and comedy are open forms of communication.

So he decided to use "motherfucker" instead, which didn't help. After they tried to get him to tone it down, he went ballistic. Considering that the head of Black Enterprise had to personally kick him out, there must have been some serious stuff going down. Supposedly, he made a white girl cry.

I don't promote censorship, but I do promote common sense and respect for my heritage. It's sad because you got kids in Eastern Europe tossing the N-word around like a nerf ball.
