history lesson!! :
the word cr4ckers was what slaves used to call the whipping tool that they would get beat with by their owners. the used the word ‘cr4cker’ because everytime they would get hit, the noise would make a crack sound. n!gger and cr4cker are not the same.
sorry for the grammar mistakes, i’m so angry and frustrated right now.
some of this information might be wrong so please correct me but from what i learned, it was the sound of the tool they would get whipped with. apparently it was also used by whites (indentured servants im guessing) but idk.
