Since we're on the topic, I'm genuinely curious about what Black people think about the use of "negro" and "negra" in countries where those words simply mean "black" because of Spanish colonization, unlike in the US where "Negro" has a much heavier historical association.
In my country, especially among the older generation, people still use "negro" and "negra" to refer to black people. They're generally not used with the same racist intent or historical baggage that those words have in the US the terms come from Spanish, where "negro" literally means "black," and they're just some of the many Spanish words that stayed in our vocabulary because of our country's long history of Spanish colonization.
The Nword, especially the hard R version, has never really been part of our local vocabulary. Most people here who use it today probably learned it from Western media, music, movies, or the internet. Based on my experience, when people here use the N word or the hard R version, it's usually meant as a derogatory slur.
That said, context still matters when it comes to how "negro" and "negra" are used but like many words, they can still be used in an offensive way depending on the person's intent, tone, and the situation. So I'm curious how do black people feel about the use of these words in countries where they're part of the local language and don't have the same history as they do in the US?
And yes, I'm using an alt account for this because I don't want to deal with the public stoning if this question goes wrong
