singing the n word in a hip hop song. One of his players informed him it is a cultural taboo for a white person to use that word in America.

Can anyone think of any other is instance where a word is OK to use except for one small subset of the society, and then the word is so bad you can lose your job for using it? Would anyone like to even attempt to defend this rationally and intellectually?
