In the online reference source of Wikipedia, there is an entire page dedicated to ethnic slurs or better known as street language stereotyping a race. In looking at that list, it must be questioned in one pertinent area, in why is it that the one group which is the American Afroid has such a global reference point of being referred to as a Nigger.
No other group from Mongoloid to Caucasoid has as many references in street slang for them. It is not the Negroid race proper which is the focus, but the Afroid, the coastal African of uncivilized origin when mated with the white European in America, that is the global reference to immense scorn.
This is most interesting and is never focused upon as a reality in the Chinese coolie came in like numbers to America to build the railroad, the Mexican was imported over the years as a labor force, and yet they barely have raised a blip in slant eyes or beaner for names.
The same holds true with the Indian coolie imported by the British to Africa in they barely raising a wog from blacks or whites.
What is the reason that from blacks, to whites to browns, to yellows that the American Afroid has been afforded such a wide range of scorn by the world peoples.
Here is the Wiki list.

I note in this list that JUNGLE BUNNY, BUFFALER HEAD, RASTUS, REMUS, TOBY etc.. are not even mentioned as much as DARKIE. So even this Wiki list is incomplete, and that even expounds upon a reality in there are so many terms for the American Afroid to ridicule them as a people, that other groups as a whole must perceive something by instinct that is worth ridiculing such scorn upon this group.
This is not racism when it is not including the black African, but it is a distinct people in the Americas which for reasons of behavior is so causing ire in other peoples, that they are by natural human response, defining in exasperation this group which at base is frustrating all the other groups.
This is not a white community alone, but other blacks as a whole mocking this Afroid group, as much as the yellow, red and brown skinned groups.
One never hears of an Asian "passing" for white and yet that is the premium in a black group even in America to get ahead.
Are the realities in Wiki a reality which is denied that perhaps the stereotypes of lazy, over sexed and not intelligent are a feature of this bush class of Africa who were captured by the more advanced black peoples, and sold to Arabs and Europeans, and in America, this group then bred with white peoples, to form this hybrid group that manifests traits which so infuriate other groups, including blacks.
Until this is examined reasonably, none of the problems of race are going to be solved. Is there a reality in this that the Afroid has a responsibility in this, and they must rise above what they are by nature doing which is frustrating the others peoples.
Is it not expected that a child requires teaching, so as to be a non frustrating partner in society, so should it not be a reality that whatever it is that is bothering the other peoples who do not act in a way to have dozens of descriptions of them created, should educate the Afroid to conform to the other humans in majority?
That is what societal conformity has for generations mandated, and it is at this point that beyond political correctness for power and votes, that raises one race over other more disciplined races like the Asian, that the world should require an accounting of this and an explanation and a proper educational doctrine to bring harmony to the world peoples.
A global response can not be wrong, in the world being at fault. What is the reason behind the numerous names defining the American Afroid? This is a question that the major educational institutions must undertake and answer the public for the good of all.
