sand-nwords? What would that be? A slur for the nomads of the Saharra? Bedouines?

This was a derogatory term for middle easterners that cropped up (to my awareness, anyway, and I don't care to go searching around to fact check myself on this point) in the xenophobia following 9/11.

Seems like it would be for anyone brown tbh. Y'no, cause racists think all brown people lve in the desert.

You're going to have to research that on your own. I didn't ask for clarification and I don't care to know what he meant tbh.
