Sacatra
Sacatra was a term used in the French Colony of Saint-Domingue to describe the descendant of one black and one griffe parent, a person whose ancestry is 7⁄8 black and 1⁄8 white. It was one of the many terms used in the colony's racial caste system to measure one's black blood.
The etymology of sacatra is uncertain; Félix Rodríguez González linked it to Spanish sacar 'take out' and atrás 'behind'; thus, a sacatra is a slave who is not kept in the house or at the front as a lighter-skinned servant might be.
