Sambo means cross-breeding of a Negro and Native Americans. It comes from Spanish "los ambos", meaning "the both" or "the others". Historically it came into being along with mulatto (cross-breeding of white and Negro) and mestizo (cross-breeding of white and Native Americans). More properly spelled zambo
Only a nigger would think that sambo is a racial slur.
Cross-breeding to create sambos or mulattoes is like mixing clean water with dirty water - you just get more dirty water.

Get the sambo mug.AS USED IN HIP-HOP/URBAN SLANG:
A sambo is a coward and a turncoat. A sambo with backdown from a fight. A sambo will steal. A sambo will stab you in the back.
The term has many supposed origins, the most common coming either from the story of Little Black Sambo or the British conquest of India. Many cite the slavery days of the U.S.A., in which the term is used in the same fashion as the Indian source. The "black faces" of early U.S. entertainment are often called sambos.
A.K.A. a house nigger (as in Malcolm X's contrast of the house nigger versus the field nigger).

Did you hear about John and Steve? They both liked this chic at a party and the chic found out. She laughed and told them both to Ro Sham Bo for a hand job from her as the spoils.
They agreed, everyone in the house had to throw down a couple of bucks to watch, which went to the chic as she was using herself as the prize.
They played Standard Ro Sham Bo because the chic demanded that standard be the game they play and neither one of them protested.
In the end Steve went down. But he did very well from having been kicked 42 times in the sack!
Afterwards, the chic took John in the room and wanked him! I don't know if the hand job was worth it!
