Definitions

  1. A large tropical seed with a hard shell, fibrous husk, white flesh, and liquid inside.

Word origin

From coco + nut. In reference to assimilated Hispanic or black people, derived from the fruit's exotic origins. The slur originates from the idea that one is "brown on the outside, white on the inside". In reference to Polynesians, from the ubiquity of coconut palms in the area.
