Another generation or two, no kid will know what an Indian is. (Feather not dot)
Blacks can only be CEO’s, Engineers, geneticists, or quantum physicists.
All criminals will be White males.
Can we at least hope they will keep the pictures of cats on cat food?
Only the approved breeds./s
Growing up I never even thought of the Cream of Wheat guy as black. I just thought he had a tan.
So we are going to erase black people and Indians from everything to show we are NOT racists???
Sounds kind of racist to me!
See, we used to all be happy buying products which endorsed the idea of black people being productive members of society, but nowadays, nobody wants a picture of a black person on their food. At least not liberals, who think black people are inferior and can’t be trusted for anything but their vote, which must be given to democrats or else.
There’s a black guy on cream of wheat?
This is so racialist. Why do they want to erase black people from history???
That’s Feline-Americans pal!
Remember when the Pullman Porter was one of the best-paying and most sought-after jobs for black men? It was a very big deal. Will that be erased also?
Yep, they had an exclusive on that job, and their own union too.
“More erasing blacks from history.”
Not just history - from the present; most white working normals will never deal with the mobs in the streets, and continue to live as though nothing is going on.
The same is true with removing Indian names from sports teams, product labels, etc.; they are erasing them from popular culture.
