That's where you're wrong.

What was done was done, and what was written was written. No amount of wishing it went away is going to make the nigger word disappear. You can't and shouldn't shield your nephew from the realities of the world, past or present. He would be better off being exposed to the word, learning why it exists and what it means, and facing it as a proud and unafraid human being than shy away from it.
