The one word its ok for black people to say to eachother. However, if a white person said to a black person (or another white person) the original person who said it would be racist.
Nigger can be seen from two perspectives:
Black person to black person "Wat up my nigga" (perfectly harmless)
White person to white person "Hey, my nigga" (totally offensive)
Black person to black person "Wat up my nigga" (perfectly harmless)
White person to white person "Hey, my nigga" (totally offensive)
