The resurgence of the N-word, the B-word, F-word and other offensive terms has more to do with society as a whole spiraling into the a cesspool of depravity. Everything that once was frowned upon, is now winked at and acceptable. There have always been double standards among the races as to what is and isn't ok for outsiders to say or see. There are terms that other ethnic groups use among themselves that don't make headlines. In part because these terms are not reminders of lynching's, beatings, rapes, separation of familles and other types of oppression. Younger people are not aware of what the now Baby Boomers lived through so they can now stand on a stage or make a movie, or even go through the main door at a sports arena.  If  a forensic unit examined the N-word, I'm sure they would still find the blood, heart and soul of those that gave their lives for the freedom of us all. I don't feel the N- word should be used openly by recording artist, because it's a slap in the face of their parents and their own family heritage. But unfortunately some of these artist know very little about their heritage, as some proclaim in their music the lack of parenting and family values.
