How did you first learn racist words?

    We all know racist words, but how did you first learn them?

    I remember being in class one day, in 5th class I think, when we were doing a geography lesson, and the teacher pointed to the river Niger, and asked what it was.
    "The river ******" says someone down the back, and the whole class bursts out laughing, even the teacher, who tries to shush us in between breathes.

    I had to ask the teacher what the word meant.:o


    I forget most of the others.

    This is going to get ugly.
