In the black community calling someone ‘coon’ is the like an ultimate form of disrespect. It’s essentially a way of saying you put your integrity and self respect aside to please a white counterpart by acting a way you usually wouldn’t, whether it’s boss, girlfriend, husband, family, friend, etc..

Back then he also publicly addressed the backlash he was receiving saying that the only people he needs to make happy is his wife and kids.

Still yet Draymond Green went way too far using that term to describe a fellow brother that has found success in the media world.
