I still remember when TV had no black people except for Amos and Andy.

Will TV be next to segregate?

The Left doesn’t care what you think or want. If your Great Grandmother was alive they would tell her the same.

Good. All these family members need to come out kicking and screaming at the destruction of their legacies.

The Cream of Wheat chef was so proud of his picture on the boxes that he had the image on his headstone.

If quaker oats wasn’t so busy caving like a bunch of whimps, they should put this story out and keep the brand name.

Wonder what they'll rename it. Uncle Ben's Converted Pancake Mix? Virtue Signal Syrup?

Fresh from scratch pancakes are amazingly easy and quick to make, and taste better than the pre-packaged product of any brand. Same with real Maple Syrup, albeit the latter can be a bit expensive. But Aunt Jemima face on the box, or on the bottle of corn sweetener and artificially flavored Franken-syrup, always seemed like EVERYBODY'S aunt and was a reassuring image and reliable flavor in millions of kitchens.

These people are utterly insane and it's about time somebody put 'em down.

I guarantee that the original Aunt Jemima’s pancakes put the stuff that comes out of the box in the shade.

Nancy Green, was the original Aunt Jemima. Her descendants would have more claim to the legacy, than Anna Short Harrington’s family.

I hope somehow this leads to removing all the tokens in media.

It’s time for a white Aunt Jemima and white Uncle Ben.

He won’t get a voice in the MSM.

The mob has spoken.

Read on:

Evans, a 66 year-old veteran of the U.S. Marines who lives on disability, said that Quaker Foods also used Harrington’s pancake recipe. Her descendants tried to sue the company for $3 billion for not paying them royalties in 2014, but they lost the case.

Evans Doubles Down
Evans said that Quaker Foods should admit that they profited off images of slavery as well as the likenesses of Green and Harrington, rather than erasing them from shelves completely.

Quaker and the others are just hoping the Marxists nationalize them last.

A commenter on another site today expressed his extreme disappointment that the people who are on “our side” are not really on our side. We always get betrayed, but the other side never seems to. It occurred to me that the reason for that is that other side exacts a heavy price for betrayal - and no more access to the trough of campaign contributions and bribes. Instead, we take our traitors and elect them to higher offices.

The new brand name should be something like “Nancy Green's Famous Pancake Mix,” which would honor the first Aunt Jemima corporate icon who had a key role in establishing the brand. Born into slavery, after the Civil War, Nancy Green became a superb cook and was widely liked for her cheerful personality. She was a natural choice to play Aunt Jemima and was well-compensated for the role, enough so that she became a generous philanthropist. Notably, a Black history organization, The African American Registry, has proposed just such a re-branding to do justice to Nancy Green.
