Hey dumdum, knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. Try using your brain why black people have it a little worse.
And knowing that ‘Cracker Jacks’ heavily refers to baseball, the crack of the bat…
Then put into context how old the company is…
Their old mindset was basically ‘white people play baseball, black people play basketball’
Cracker Jacks was founded in the late 1800s, around 1896.
Poor white people. They’ve been oppressed for so many years.

It can be used in a racist way, but its a term of endearment in my circles.
