I was in Haiti last month and kept hearing the phrase "te rouge" to refer to white Haitians. What does this phrase actually mean? And what is the appropriate spelling?

Could you have heard the term ten wouj which lterally means reddish teint?
Another popularly used term is grimo (for males), grimèl (for females)
