How can a black person not be offended if people of other races refer to them using a word that was historically used to disrespect them, when racism and discrimination still exists currently? If all black people decided to no longer use that word, do you really think every single person from another race would respect black people? Do you really think every non-black person would use that word in a non-disrespectful way? Especially considering people of non-black races still use that word intentionally to cause offence (particularly in areas where black people are a minority) and the fact that Black Lives Matter is still not being reflected in statistics
