There's no context in which a white person calling a black person that word isn't racist, and no amount of mental gymnastics around "intention" will change that. She knew the word she was using and she knew that she was calling a black person that word, she said it with the intention she meant it.

"Emily was clearly not being racist" I have to laugh
Luckily I care not even a little for your (bad) take on that or your judgement of me for it

You don't get to define or dictate how others think. Sorry.

If you want to see racism everywhere and tilt at windmills, knock yourself out. I don't mind.
