Eskimos PIes have now been cancelled

[escapefromboston]

Some time in the near future people will release that Twitter isn’t real life.

[Texas Eagle]

Love to see that happen but, somehow I think that one is going to disappear as fast as the #MeToo movement and the #BringBackOurGirls movement.

If Aunt Jemima has to be cancelled then Yale needs to be cancelled, too

[Mark]

Also, cancel all diplomas issued by these racists!

[CaptainK]

I'd like to think some wily conservative stated this hashtag.

All those elite liberals so proudly displaying their Slave Owner diplomas, what will they do now?

[Old Grumpy]

Now this could really get interesting!

There is a small Lutheran college in New York called Concordia College. Its sports teams are called the Clippers. A (white) alumnae has started an online petition to change the name to a new mascot. Why, pray tell? Because some clipper ships were used in the slave trade! How about changing the name from the Clippers to the Karens?

New York Life, Aetna and US Life also sold insurance policies to slave owners, particularly those whose laborers engaged in hazardous work in mines, lumber mills, turpentine factories and steamboats in the industrializing sectors of the South. US Life, a subsidiary of AIG, declined to comment on its slave policy sales. Wachovia, one of Wells Fargo’s predecessor companies, has apologized for its historic ties to slavery as have JPMorgan Chase and Aetna. More than 40 other firms, mostly based in the South, sold such policies, too, though documentation is scarce and most closed their doors generations ago.

All this fuss could be avoided if all institutions were just named by numerical code only. For example, Yale was founded on October 9, 1701.

So don’t call it Yale anymore. Call it “1091701”.
Go “1091701”! Beat “10101845” (the US Naval Academy).

Why do I always have to think of everything?

I live 15 minutes outside New Haven...maybe I will go burn the University down to the ground...but you did not hear that from me.

Boston Red Sox owner John Henry
got City of Boston to change name
of a street abutting Fenway Park
from Yawkey Way back to Jersey
St. since former Red Sox owner
Tom Yawkey was seen as racist.
They were the last MLB team to
integrate and supposedly black players
trying out got responses of
“get those n-—ers off the field”
from management.

More recently Twins player Torii
Hunter said he had a no trade-to-
Boston clause in his contract due
to racist incidents.

The Duke of Jersey, who inspired
the name of the redubbed street,
was a slave trader.
Red Sox owner Henry owns the
liberal Boston Globe.It is
unlikely, though possible,
that the Red Sox get to play this year.
(Owners and players squabbling...
And some teams have players
testing positive for Covid.)

There’s a pretty big hospital they’ll have to rename while they’re at it.

"So far the left is ignoring it"

Only because, up 'til this point, it's been a go-to educational institution for Leftists.

[MountainWalker]

I agree. Shut down that university. Only when bougie white leftists start feeling the pain will the madness stop.

Of the fact Georgetown University stabilized its finances by selling 272 slaves. The "woke" Left must have wondered what happened.... 😑🙄

[Pajamajan]

"Because Yale was named after an ACTUAL slave trader. Elihu Yale not only owned slaves, he made his money trading slaves."

I did not know that 😳.
