This term, âNillaâ, is socially acceptable because i happen to be caucasion and a common racial slur used against the color of my skin is the term âcrackerâ. The term âNillaâ derives from the snack known as âNilla Waferâ which happens to be a type of sugary CRACKER. Being that I am the race in which the word implies hate on itâs ok for me to use it. The word is not being used because it looks like the N word. The N word (a racial slur used on african americans) is not something i can say for as previously stated I am caucasion and fully aware of my caucasity.
