the N-WORD

I have never been called a cracker by any race. And if someone did, I'd ask them to explain the etymology of the word and how it relates to race.

Furthermore, I think I would laugh my *** off if someone did call me that. It means nothing to me.

I believe cracker came about because of the white man cracking the whip on the coloreds. In reality, coloreds should refer to whites as master, not cracker.

Urban Dictionary:

1. Cracker

Originally the white slave driver because he would "crack" the whip, hence the noun cracker.

Yo homey pick the cotton faster cuz here comes ole Mr.Cracker with his whip!

I'd be honored to be called a cracker. In my definition, it shows superiority over coloreds. I have no problem with you thinking I'm superior.

I am not sure I'd laugh? But I would be perplexed. I wouldn't be offended as I do not know what it means. It's like calling me a shirt, a rock, sky, bird, plane, turtle, frog, etc.

What about flogging? That doesn't require a whip. I do own a whip ;however, it hasn't been used on a black person and is strickly for sexitime. I don't think it can crack though.

So maybe if I get called a cracker, I should reply, "So you are into bondage as well?"

I would find it funny that someone would actually think that it has some effect on me.

Nobody said the coloreds were smart.

Ease up home skillet. Take a deep breathe, collect your thoughts, then type.

Lest we forget that being black gives one an inherent fighting advantage.
