It’s 70’s phase that was replaced with the word ni@@er

It's a racial slur. But years ago before EVERYTHING was considered a racial thing, it was just a cute story.

Maybe it is just a nick name

This may help explain it. I don't ever remember reading it so I don't know if it really is racist or not

Directed by Ub Iwerks, Shamus Culhane, Al Eugster. Mammy gives Little Black Sambo a quick scrub on the washboard, then pats him down with baby powder, black baby powder, before sending him off to play. She warns him about the tiger. "That ol' tiger sure do like dark meat!" The family dog has brushed up against a freshly painted fence and now fancies himself to be a scary tiger.
