I agree....the other half of their issue is their own racism among each other, as well as their need to keep up material appearances. There is a pecking dis-order in their communities.

My suggestion for the new brand name: “AUNT SHANIQWA!”

That is a POSITIVE legacy ... nobody could cook pancakes like Aunt Jamima ... I don’t get this. Does anything representing the color BLACK need to be erased? What about “Black Beauty” ... racist book? This is really getting STUPID!

It’s only just beginning. They want to destroy America’s History, as commies/socialists/fascists always do. They’re worse than the Taliban and ISIS.

The world knew her as "Aunt Jemima," but her given name was Nancy Green and she was a true American success story. She was born a slave in 1834 Montgomery County, KY... and became a wealthy superstar in the advertising world, as its first living trademark. Green was 56-yrs old when she was selected as spokesperson for a new ready-mixed, self-rising pancake flour and made her debut in 1893 at a fair and exposition in Chicago. She demonstrated the pancake mix and served thousands of pancakes... and became an immediate star. She was a good storyteller, her personality was warm and appealing, and her showmanship was exceptional. Her exhibition booth drew so many people that special security personnel were assigned to keep the crowds moving. Nancy Green was signed to a lifetime contract, traveled on promotional tours all over the country, and was extremely well paid. Her financial freedom and stature as a national spokesperson enabled her to become a leading advocate against poverty and in favor of equal rights for folks in Chicago. She maintained her job until her death in 1923, at age 89. Nancy Green was a remarkable woman... and has just been ERASED by politically correct bedwetters.
