A term that ignorant caucasion people call intelligent African Americans. Just because there are foolish African Americans out there, throwing their lives away doesn't mean that's what every African American does. Therefore, by calling an intelligent African American an oreo-( white on the inside, black on the outside) you are making yourself look ignorant. And saying that they aren't black, just because they aren't selling drugs between class periods, walking with that ghetto swagger, or making a fool out of themselves, doesn't mean that they aren't black. YOU are the one looking ignorant, YOU are the one looking foolish, and YOU are the one that's gonna get jumped.
Alyssa {african american}- wow. Yesterday I saw a shirt that said, " Nigger- don't you know it's called the WHITEhouse?" It made me so upset. It annoys me that people can be so racist towards African Americans.

Steph {caucasion}- Hahahaha shut up Alyssa. You're such an oreo.

Alyssa: Excuse me?

Steph: You're the whitest black person I've ever known!

{watch your back, Steph.}
