Niggerati Edit Meaning

1.

'Niggerati' in the late 1960s and throughout the 1970s held legitimate use as a term describing the black intelligentsia. With the growing social distaste for 'nigger' in later decades, niggerati is now used primarily in disparaging reference to any group of black 'intellects'.

In 2007, the local niggerati made a vain effort to revive the dashiki.

See blacks, negroes, coloreds, niggers
