Nigger or Nigga, what’s the difference?  Nah, really?

Before I begin, please allow me to say, this is not my attempt to intellectualize the use of the N-word.  I personally think that’s an oxymoron in itself.  Instead I’m more interested in obtaining clarity in our usage of the word by asking how do we intelligently make an argument that nigga differentiates from nigger?  Nigger or nigga, I ask, “What’s the difference”?
