Pretty much always been a pejorative by blacks towards whites down south.

Blacks call white people ‘Crackers’ because in the slave days the lead black or white person would have a whip and the sound of the whip made a cracking sound.

My son who has more friends of color than caucasian friends educated me on the true meaning of the term.
