Most black people you know were probably slaves at one point and time so they have the right to use that word. We do not understand suffering until we have walked a mile in their shoes.
When you use that word conceptualize what it does to people who used to be slaves. It is the EXACT same thing as beating a child to keep it scared. The N word is like a chain around the neck of the black man and until it is ERASED from our vocabulary, only then can we get to the place Marty Lutheran King saw for us.

yep like black folks are the only people ever to be slaves
you do know that slavery currently exists today
maybe if you feel so strongly over a word that "reminds" you of a time decades ago that black people weren't treated so nice (not even slaves then) you might try to help out the current slaves of today.
