As the other guy mentioned there were/are places on the internet that frequently posted propaganda styled stormfront images of black people (exaggerated features, like lips and etc) using some variation of the phrase “we wuz kangs…” and so on. Like I said the phrase (or it usage in the op) isn’t racist, just that people should know it’s a phrase with some history.
