This is a phonologically relevant news story. A white teacher tells his student to: "Sit down, nigga." In this clip the man illustrates the difference between [nɪɡə], which he is arguing to be the non-offensive colloquial term, and [nɪɡɹ], the racial slur.
HAHA. I'm pretty sure that I've seen this before. It really is something fantastic.
