McDonald’s has changed its Twitter display name to “Amplifying Black Voices,” adding a profile banner that lists Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Alton Sterling, Botham Jean, Atatiana Jefferson, Ahmaud Arbery, and George Floyd as victims of “racism” and “systemic oppression.”
The brand’s Twitter banner reads:
Trayvon Martin. Michael Brown. Alton Sterling. Botham Jean. Atatiana Jefferson. Ahmaud Arbery. George Floyd.
He was one of us. She was one of us. They were all one of us. We seem them in our customers. We see them in our crew members. We see them in our franchisees. And this is why the entire McDonald’s family grieves. It’s why we stand for them and any other victims of systemic oppression and violence. Today with stand with Black communities across America. Which is why we’re donating to the National Urban League and the NAACP. We do not tolerate inequity, injustice, or racism.
“Black trans women have a very simple message: stop killing us,” the international corporation relayed in a video created by Imara Jones, a fellow of George Soros’s Open Society Foundations.
“Black trans women have a very simple message: stop killing us”
McDonald’s shared a quote asking about the volume of “black storytelling” in video games.
“I encourage kids to protest like me and to use their voices to stop racism” -
McDonald’s aligned itself with NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace’s allegation that a “noose” had been placed in his garage.
McDonald’s also shared its political messaging via Instagram and Facebook — though it has not changed the display names on those accounts. It has not yet posted any BLM-related content on its Pinterest page.
Weeks ago, the company announced its intent to donate $1 million to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the National Urban League.

Alright McDonalds. Put your money where your mouth is. Incorporate in California, pay the highest state taxes possible (CA corporate rate), and pay a 60% Federal Tax rate. And comply with CA labor, enviromental and minimum wage laws nationwide (actually San Francisco’s). Otherwise you as a corporation are a hypocrite.
no more McDonalds for me. I got one steak biscuit there in the last two and a half years.
Big Macs were the bomb when I was in high school - I had a bite of my best friends and it was cold, dry and the burger was a tasteless slab of what they tried to make everyone think is meat. Yuck. Oh and the french fries were cold.
WHO DOES THAT????!!!!
Made my last McDonald’s visit last nite.
Finally, some real motivation to lose some weight—staying away will be a lot easier.
I also have not eaten at MickeyDees for decades. The message from MickeyDees has long been “Whites not welcome.”
that’s what i picked up on, as well
and the burger meat is just awful
Not lovin it. Done with it.
Thank God I now have a reason to dump McDonalds. Hope they so well catering to their Marxist customers.
