In the late 1800s white racism was very strong and did not only pertain to blacks. The "Anglo-Saxon" whites believed themselves to be a superior race and discriminated against the immigrants that were rapidly coming into the nation. They discriminated against people because of a slight difference in complexion. In modern times most don't even notice these differences in skin tone, but they did then. This expression is an example of racism.

What is the difference between a scotch and a whiskey?

There is NO difference. Scotch IS whisky. Scotch is a nickname for whisky made in Scotland. On every bottle of whisky made in Scotland the label says 'Scotch Whisky' rather than 'Scottish Whisky'. The word 'Scotch' simply means where the product is made i.e. Scotland. ----- Scotch is a tradename and must meet requirements for ingredients, distilling, aging and blending to be called "Scotch". Whiskey is more generic referring to any distilled drink made from grain mash, fermented and then distilled one, two or three times then stored in charred wooden barrels to "age" the whiskey and gain its brown color. In some cases the aging process is skipped as in the production of "moonshine", which techically could be called young unaged whiskey.
