I took a Black literature class in college. It was a great class, probably one of the best college classes I've had. Teacher was great, material was fantastic. There was a fair amount of reading out loud and lots of "negro" "nigger" and "colored" sprinkled throughout the literature. We had a class discussion early on about reading such words allowed and it was decided that we wouldn't say the word "nigger" when it came up in the literature but "negro" and "colored" would be just fine. Kinda blew my mind.
