And if they have never heard it before, then like I said in my previous post, it becomes a fantastic teaching opportunity. Although how a young person could use a word he/she'd never heard before is way out of my comprehension.

The word is out there, in music, films and games, so there is a good chance of them hearing it. It's not a word that should be hidden away from society, but filled with context and discussed.
As I said, hearing other black kids calling each other it...

Quite like (random word) a kids unlikely to have heard the word homie. Other kids call each other that at school, the kid picks up on it and calls others that. Bad choice as noone says that anymore as far as I am aware but just an example

I would love if people were educated about the history and stuff if they incorrectly used it. But thats not what would happen in most cases if we are honest..it would be instant cries of 'racist'...get the parents called in, they are clearly teaching the kids the wrong stuff, etc etc
