the slang ''cracker'' mean like white people you be talking about

the other is white trash

"Cracker" refers to the barrels that were filled with wheat or wheat crackers owned by most wealthy plantation owners in the south-eastern United States during the nineteenth century. Wheat was not in short supply and by grinding it down into flour, and then baked with salt to preserve the wheat, crackers were often in the barrels. Those who could afford such a luxury were labeled "crackers." Today the term has since evolved into a derogatory meaning white person.
