Cracker is a pejorative for poor white skinned people

Caucasians include Australian Aborigines and Dravidians - both of whom are dark-skinned to even black-skinned. Caucasians also include brown skinned north Indians, Arabs, Persians

>> Cracker is a pejorative for poor white skinned people <<

Not in the old general merchandise store where all the village elders gathered for a visit in the summer; around the old potbelly stove in the winter --

Crackers is Floridians -- where is the rednecks and hillbillies?

Floridians cracked whips herding cattle. More so than even Texas. Of course, you already knew that.

Uh, crackers of the food variety used to be shipped to old time general stores in barrels, hence the name.

Geez.

That, caucasian barrel, is racist too. Need to change the name to tool barrel, breakfast barrel, or something that has no racial connotation.

Wait, that's impossible! Everything is racist! Aaaargh!

Don’t pull logic and facts out- that is a tactic of white privilege. If I view the word cracker as a microaggression, then it has to be eliminated. In fact Ritz crackers are especially heinous because the name sounds like uppity white privileged former slaveholders

There used to be a pancake/breakfast chain called Sambo’s... PC crowd killed it back in the 80s or early 90s.

You ever hear of the Georgia Crackers? Black Baseball Team played in a stadium across from the old large SEARS store on Ponce De Leon Avenue in ATL?

Or you could look back even farther and see that Georgia Crackers was a term for the pioneers who settled Georgia. With all due respect to FL, or course. :0)

Well, yes. But I hear she’s taken to being a school dietician on a very large (national) scale.
