Truthfully, I don’t think that black people calling each other nigger is that ironic or hard to figure out (actually should be “nigga”- I’ve never heard the “er” enunciated when used in this context). I think a sociologist’s explanation might be: “What better way to diffuse the power of a word that has caused so much pain than to adopt the word, claim nigger for black use, but translate it as something like “fellow black man”, something engendering racial solidarity?” A comparative analysis could point out that some gays will refer to homosexuals as queers or even fags, as a sort of “you can’t hurt us with that word anymore” statement. Common sense relates it to a family situation: I can call my sister a bitch cause she’s my sister- you don’t have the right to do that. My gut reaction to the protest against black people calling each other nigger is probably the least sophisticated: why do you care? But after lots of thought, I’ve found the correct answer: it’s all about intent.
