Definitions by johnnyleegreedo
coon
Originally, a generic anti-Black slur, essentially synonymous with “nigger.” That definition is now outdated, though.
More recently, it’s evolved into a slur WITHIN the Black community, used to refer to Black individuals who sell out their people, essentially synonymous with “Uncle Tom.”
