You guys MUST be pretty young. The N word actually means SOMEONE WHO IS IGNORANT. It's morons who turned it into the racial slander it's used as now.
Used to be you'd look up that word in the dictionary, and it would actually define it as ONE WHO IS IGNORANT, but since it's used so widely as a racial slur, that original definition is no longer printed in the dictionary.
Renee, the word is a racial term. So, the context in which it was used is correct. In regards to the word nigger. There is no concrete information on where the word originated from. Some people believe, that the word orginated from the country Niger, or the word means ignorant like you stated. The fact of the matter is now, it is used as a racist term to describe blacks and other minorities, particually the ones from the middle east.
