Cracker is more of a term slaves used to describe the white man with the whip... its kind of a word used to defend being called nigger ... but some people take offense
And to be honest the black race was smart by calling themselves nigga .. they took the most derogatory thing a person could call them and made it their own .. its rather brilliant to be honest ... direct racism is still offensive though I don't care what color your skin is

I kinda disagree with the last statement. Of course I say it because it is conditioned in me but I don't feel it did its job. It took no power from the actual word nigger which was the goal. And then u rappers saying it every other second in a song and expect their white fans to not say it. I don't mind some white folks saying it because I know them but at the same time is hypothetical to feel I can give permission for it to be used by some and not others. I just feel the word nigga backfired on us. But I see what u saying.
