I don't think it's the province of a bunch of white people on the internet to decide what is and isn't racially charged, I really can't think of any legitimate use of this particular word that other words wouldn't capture just as well, and there is a big honking difference between advocating prudence and restraint and tact in word choice and being 'PC police' who want to 'tell people what they can and can't say'.
