Jade, Danielle and Jo AVOIDED saying anything blatantly racist, because they knew it would condemn them.

The difference in these two examples are opposite ends of the spectrum.
No,Emily showed Ignorance to the word.
the word is WRONG.She used it like an everyday word which is wrong.
Im sure Emily isn racist,or course she isnt.but she showed ignorance,and stupidity.

Im sure the guys on the street corner shouting N***er at the black kid walking down the street mean it,but everytime somone like emily uses the word ,it gives these real racists the pass to use it.
