Ethnic slur against East and Southeast Asians
Gook
Gook ( or ) is a racial slur for Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese, Koreans, and other related ethnic groups. Its origin is unclear, but it may have originated among U.S. Marines during the Philippine–American War (1899–1902). Historically, U.S. military personnel used the word "to refer to any dark-skinned foreigner, especially a non-European or non-American." The earliest published example is dated 1920 and notes that U.S. Marines then in Haiti used the term to refer to Haitians. It was widely used by American servicemen in Asia during World War II the Korean War, and the Vietnam War.
