Why did black people call themselves nigga?
Can you tell me why black people sometimes refer to themselves as 'nigga'?
The history of the n-word is complex and deeply rooted in racism and oppression. However, in contemporary usage, some black people use 'nigga' as a term of endearment or camaraderie. It's a way to reclaim ownership of a word that has been used to dehumanize and discriminate against black people for centuries.
