Homie or homey is a slang term in urban culture whose origins etymologists generally trace [1] to African American language from the late 19th century. This was a time when many African Americans were migrating to cities in larger numbers, and "homeboy" meant a male friend from back home. It was eventually shortened to "homie". The term could also have originated from the Spanish word hombre, which means man. Similarly, the word is also a contraction of Mexican slang words "homeboy" or "homebuddies" which became prevalent among some of the youth in Latino and chicano communities in the United States, starting in the late 1960s and continuing up to the present. Since the 1980s, the word has been particularly prevalent in hip hop subculture. Homie was also commonly associated with gangs, gang symbols, and rebellious youth.
Are you implying that you know my ethnicity? When some one have a difficulty with english you just imply that he or she is an african american or an hispanic latin american? Are you a racist?
