spook

Disparaging term for black people; used because during afternoon hours their darker skin tone blends with the darkness of the night, leaving only the whites of their eyes visible, thus resembling a ghost.

circa mid 1900's

spook

A racist term used towards black people. Spook, as in "ghost", originated due to the difficulty of seeing black people at night.
