"Spade" has been used as a derogatory term for blacks.
"White space" is treating white as good? You're replacing white with "empty", no content, meaningless, and you think white is being used to indicate good? Nope. You (Stanford, not the parent) just took a list of phrases and grepped for "white", but didn't actually think.
