“Honky (also spelled honkie or sometimes honkey) is mainly an exonym for white people, predominantly heard in the United States. The first recorded use of honky in this context may date back to 1946, although the use of “Honky Tonk” occurred in films well before that time.[1] The exact origins of the word are generally unknown and postulations about the subject vary.” (A series of guesses & speculations follow at this webpage)

If our “brothers of a darker persuasion” wish to call me a “honkey” then that’s hunky-dory with me!
