n. (plural of whiteboy English)
Wikipedia
The Whiteboys were a secret Irish agrarian organisation in 18th-century Ireland which used violent tactics to defend tenant farmer land rights for subsistence farming. Their name derives from the white smocks the members wore in their nightly raids. As they levelled the fences at night, they were usually referred to at the time as "Levellers" by the authorities, and by themselves as "Queen Sive Oultagh's children", "fairies", or as followers of "Johanna Meskill" or "Sheila Meskill", all symbolic figures supposed to lead the movement. They sought to address rack-rents, tithe collection, excessive priests' dues, evictions and other oppressive acts. As a result they targeted landlords and tithe collectors. Over time, Whiteboyism became a general term for rural violence connected to secret societies. Because of this generalisation, the historical record for the Whiteboys as a specific organisation is unclear. There were three major outbreaks of Whiteboyism: 1761–64; 1770–76; and 1784–86.
Whiteboys is the soundtrack to the 1999 film, Whiteboyz, also spelt as Whiteboys. It was released on July 20, 1999 through TVT Records and consisted entirely of hip hop. The soundtrack peaked at 145 on the Billboard 200 and 50 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and spawned one charting single "Come Get It", which made it to 73 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks.
