German term for people with roots in Southeastern Europe, Middle East, and North Africa
Kanake (or Kanacke, Kanaa(c)k; pl. Kanacken or Kanaks/Kanax) is a German ethnic slur for non-Germanic-looking people, particularly those of Turkish, Italian, or Balkan origin. It is also occasionally used to designate ethnic German working class people without a foreign background, particularly fans of football teams like Schalke 04 and others from the Ruhr region, who are referred to as "Ruhrpottkanaken". While it is primarily used in a derogatory manner, since the 1990s the term is also undergoing reappropriation.
