Derogatory term, literally meaning black head, as in someone with black hair. Mainly used by ethnic Russians in Russia for people from the Caucasus, like Armenians, Georgians or Azerbaijanis, but also for Central Asians like Tajiks or Afghans.
Random American guy: âWait, that guy over there doesnât look Russian, his hair arenât even blond, why does he speak Russian?â
Russian guy: âHe is a Churkaâ
