The same pattern as the Indian Tribes. All these places and clubs or whatever that were named after Indians was an attempt to preserve their place in our society. Things were going good until they decided every notice was anti-Indian. Fools.

so my liberal friend explained that they called it aunt jemimah after the minstrel shows of black mammys that were racist, because by using the stereotype they could sell the product better than if it were sold simply as the creation of a black woman, nancy green.
they should rename the syrup nancy green and pay honor to her legacy

Nothing like $hitting on your own history, and the people who made it.

Pepsi sh*ts on a freed black who made good.

Democrats always were the party of slavery and hatred towards blacks.

“So blacks are proving they’re against racism by removing an image and tribute to a freed slave woman from pancake boxes.”

It’s not about racism; it’s about making life worse and worse in America. Any little thing; every little thing.

If people of color were genuine they would be offended that Aunt Jemimah is being removed from the packaging....

Mohammedans where known to eschew business endeavors in favor of raiding and booty capture. Commerce was considered unmanly. Today’s black community seems to have this same spirit. If wealth cannot be gained through rioting and terror, it is not worth it!

Too bad Nancy Green’s ancestors aren’t fighting for her history.

That would end that pancake mix forever. Too bad, because I love Aunt Jemima pancake mix. I'll be buying Krusteaz from now on.

Just looked it up. The guy in the Cream of Wheat picture was a professional chef from Chicago named Frank L. White.

He was so proud of it, there’s a picture of him on his headstone.

Yes, but think of all the boxes he ticks. Black. Gay. Drag queen. RuPaul could be the official pancake mix of Brunch Village!

It’s just sick what these SJW scum are doing. They are absolutely brainless. They defaced a statue of an abolitionist last week.

“Hey look a statue of an old dead guy, he must have been a slaveowner.”

There’s a statue in Boston of Lincoln guiding a kneeling slave to his feet as a free man. Of course they only see the man on his knees and are too stupid to see beyond that.

The statue is a replica of one that is in Washington DC and was PAID FOR BY SLAVE FREED BY LINCOLN. YES I.M YELLING AT THESE MORONS

Your liberal friend should learn the real history of the minstrel show.

So sad. I am too, how do you convince them? with out yelling you “dumb ass” like Red on the 70’s show? so far I am 7 out of 10 for red-pilling in my family. took time, I have had several come and admit what I told them would happen actually did. I admit that.

But still, I haven’t given up on the others that are actually closest to me. they are family, loved ones and the hardest core libs, it taint about bringing them to Trump, at this point, it is just exposing to them what they already know, and maybe they will question their reality just enough to get them to admit what they already know. The things people don’t want to see and I am sure some will choose not to see that water they are led too and not drink.

But I try for them. I want them to drink and learn for themselves.
