Since the flashbacks take place in the '80's, probably not?

I count myself as very liberal, but I get annoyed at the bleeding heart types who wring their hands at movies made or set in a time where content depicted was common and accepted. That's how history gets whitewashed. I love that the kids in Monster Squad called each other gay slurs- it shows how far we've come. So I hope they don't shy away from the N word in this movie.

Agree entirely. By cleansing history it lessens the impact and makes the characters less realistic. Kids are inexperienced, naive and scared so use minority based slurs to feel part of a larger and more protected group. It's just how kids are. There's genuine bigotry in but a few but the majority will throw the slurs around to fit in. Someone as vicious as Bowers will be saying this beep and meaning it.

I don't remember reading it in the Fukunaga script.
Yes, Henry (renamed "Travis") does say the N-word in Fukunaga's script. It's when he loses his knife after Ben escapes him and Bowers blames having lost his knife over Mike, and that's how they start chasing him up to the Kitchener ironworks.
"Travis, Snatch, Victor, and Hockstettler are still looking for the knife in the water under the bridge.
SNATCH: It probably got washed away, Travis.
Travis grabs Victor by his collar and growls in his face.
TRAVIS: It aint been washed away. Its been stolen.
VICTOR: Stolen, by who?
Travis points up the embankment at Mike, biking home over the bridge.
TRAVIS: That n***** right there." -

My man, you are a BEAST. AvP:R was garbo, though.
