I am not being racist. I just wanted to know at roughly what point in time it stopped being the casual non-offensive word meaning black person and when it became a racial slur offending black people. Please, no racist answers. Also, the same question applies to other words that are now "racist" (I won't list them, that would be edging on racist) - at one point or another, they were not offensive and black people didn't mind them, but then at a turning point in time, these words began to be offensive. Why is this? And when did it happen?
