“When they came for Sambo’s, we let it go. No wonder they finally came for Cracker Barrel.”

To misquote Niemoller:

First they came for Uncle Ben, and I did not speak out—because I was not a black male and my own rice was unconverted.

Then they came for Aunt Jemima, and I did not speak out—because I was not a black female and I had never started my own business.

Then they came for the Land O’Lakes princess, and I did not speak out—because I was not an Indian.

Then they came for my Uncle Hershel—and there was no one left to speak for either him or me.
