According to the " Oxford English Dictionary " the word " JACKO " dates back to the mid - 1600′s as a Flemish approximation of the Bantu word " monkey. " By the early 1800′s Jacko Maccacco, a famous fighting monkey, could be found on display in Westminster Pit, a notorious London arena for dog fights. The word has become part of the common vernacular and it eventually became a Racist shorthand for Blacks.
