Maybe you've just answered something in the back of my mind which is on Becky's (or Honky Tonk Radio Girl's) WFMU page there's a blurb in black about WFMU denouncing anything racist. I've never associated the word "Honky" in "Honky Tonk" having anything to do with the racist use of the word "Honky." Just thought I'd mentioin it. 🎸 ♥ 8:17pm

I’ve wondered about the context of that statement as well. Perhaps Becky felt the need because of some negative connotations with the South and the Confederacy?   8:24pm

Sorry I've become stuck on this right now. This will be my last comment on the origins of "honky." Grokipedia's definition is the best I've found right now. It mentions several times that "honky" in "honky tonk" has nothing whatsoever to do with racism. https://grokipedia.com/page/Honky 🎸 ♥ 8:44pm
