Good Morning!

Coon
(U.S.) a black person - from the practice of using hunting dogs trained to track "coons" (raccoons) to chase runaway slaves. It is also used pejoratively in Australia to refer to Aborigines. "Coon" also is used as an appropriated term by some "coloureds" in South Africa and some Maori in New Zealand. (See Blackface, "The 'Coons' of South Africa and New Zealand.")

Man I love the Internet! So much easier than microfish.

But I agree a REAL stretch!
