"Negra" is only the word you use to refer to a black woman, that's all. It has no racist meanings at all. Maybe it may be offensive in the US, but not in other places. Heck, I used to live near a city whose population was 90% black, and I also used to live near a coast city where there was also a high black people population, and the use of those words there is very normal and not racist in any way. Some people even use it simply to refer to a very attractive woman, no matter if she's black or not.

Don't generalize, please.
ah ok, the part about it being a racial slur is what I heard from someone else
