My Nigga, my Nig,.. I want to know are you talking about your property or a close friend. Words are very important in how we use or abuse them. Negus; African King, Nigger – usually offensive, a Black person; a member of any dark-skinned race

 a member of a socially disadvantaged class of persons “it's time for somebody to lead all of America's niggers … all the people who feel left out of the political process” — Ron Dellums

Usage Discussion of NIGGER

Nigger in senses 1 and 2 can be found in the works of such writers of the past as Joseph Conrad, Mark Twain, and Charles Dickens, but it now ranks as perhaps the most offensive and inflammatory racial slur in English. Its use by and among blacks is not always intended or taken as offensive, but, except in sense 3, it is otherwise a word expressive of racial hatred and bigotry.

 

And now we come to NIGGA used by many in and out of the “Black” community.  Tupac says, NIGGA is Never Ignorant Getting Goals Accomplished, but I beg to differ.
