is writing a sociolgy paper on banning the n word a good topic

Its an excellent choice of topic.
However, you must justify banning a word that, has gained global acceptance. Due to "Gangsta Rap" and "Thug Life" the use of the word on a global scale has increased. So, justifying its being banned may be a difficult argument.
Consider the ramifications of its use, or the globalization of Ni**erization. What is the impact? Has its use clarified or stigmatized? Consider the perspective, or how you will frame your argument.
Good Luck!

Yes. That is a good topic and it has recently been a news focus. I would mention that whole blow up with Michael Richards comedy routine. Basically, he got angry and took it out on the guy and called him names which is ridiculous. Your viewpoint on that fiasco would probably be interesting to your instructor. Another topic similiar to this would be racial profiling. It has so many facets, and is a problem for not only African Americans, but Latinos, and Arabs, as well.

I ought to trust Scottish guy. An essay on drug customers will fill better than 12 pages. I even have some journey in that field, and would inform you that i ought to write a e book. besides, playing, street rage, drugs and crime all in all probability come from a similar place interior the human psyche. In my own opinion all of it boils right down to escapism.

The "N" word can only offend us if we actually consider ourselves to be "N's". We can't deny that many of us go out of our way to live up to the "N" stereotype. Just like the word Fatso can't offend fit people, the "N" word shouldn't offend people that aren't "N's". It's a choice......don't be a "N".

The "n" word is exceptionally derogatory.

that would be a good subject to write on its a human society subject that is still an issue today, and that more people should be aware or active in
