Would someone please help me with the racial significance of a banana peel? I'm serious. Never heard of this before.

Well, it really has been used in a denigrating manner in the past. The idea is that blacks are monkeys and monkeys love bananas. A few years ago, some black hockey players were going to a tournament in Canada and their bus was pelted with bananas. How that could happen in smug, tolerant, "We're better than you!" Canada, I don't know. /s They have had similar incidents in tolerant, leftist, better-than-the-South Boston.

This isn't that. This is a kid throwing away a banana. But, that is to answer your question.

Remember when the Russians projected a picture of Clown Dunce nobama with a banana on the walls of the Kremlin a while back?
