That's a common misconception. You're talking about racial discrimination.
Calling a white person honkey doesn't perpetuate negative stereotypes that create barriers to their partipation in society. Almost all white people don't get denied a flat, or job call backs, or followed in a shop, or targeted by police (etc etc etc) because of of their skin colour or name spelling.
Here's some information if you're interested:
