Most folks just repeat what they heard but never look deep into it. I first heard the 'crack of the whip' from a white man, we got into a heated argument, and then he said Richard Pryor said it. End of the skit, it has a list of his writers....all white except Paul Mooney.
There's something wrong when I'm listening to a white man give me the description of a slur we gave him. I already know his foolery, I'm not falling for his serpent tongue. "They call us cracker because of the sound the whip makes off the back of a slave".
Under allah I consider any fellow muslim to be my brother regardless of color, and nothing will ever change that.
