Jeantel explained to Morgan that “the whole world say it’s a racist word” but the version of the word that she testified Martin had used in reference to Zimmerman, spelled “n-i-g-g-a” doesn’t mean what most people think it means. It doesn’t mean a “black male” as Morgan assumed, she said, but rather any kind of man, including “Chinese” for example. Morgan helpfully pointed out that that’s the version rappers use in their music.
Ha ha ha, what a load of crap. So if I went down to South Central, walk up to a group of black males and say, "Whaz up, niggas?" they would reply, "Yo, my Chinese brother!" I think not... they would probably kick the sh*t out of me. And seriously, is Rachel Jeantel our best source for African-American culture?
Also, Piers Morgan is an ass. Does he realy think "nigga" = non-ethnic male because it's in rap music? Am I to believe then "b*tches and ho's" = non-ethnic females since those terms are used in rap music all the time?
The entire interview is stupid.
