Dennis Prager reads from a Reason.com piece entitled, "White-Owned Restaurants Shamed for Serving Ethnic Food: It's Cultural Appropriation" (http://tinyurl.com/kctngut). It is another sick story of the Segregationist [racist] spirit of the Left that has been with the Democrat Party since they were founded. Here is an excerpt from the piece: ________________ If you're a white person, you have no business running a restaurant that serves Asian, Latin, African, or Indian cuisine.
That's according to the creators of a "white-owned appropriative restaurants" list, which accuses several Oregon establishments of engaging in cultural appropriation—a tool of "a white supremacist culture."
The list, a Google Docs spreadsheet, includes about 60 Portland-area restaurants, the names of their white owners, and the kind of cuisine they serve. (For example, the list informs us that Burmasphere "was founded by a white man who ate Burmese food in San Francisco.")....
...Anyway, if you're saying that white people shouldn't serve ethnic food at all, even if it's really authentic and popular with customers, you're going to drastically shrink the pool of non-ethnic people trying, eating, and learning about, ethnic cuisines. That might satisfy the enemies of cultural appropriation, but it doesn't seem like it would ultimately be in the best interests of anyone, including the ethnic restaurateurs.
I like buritos made by whites.
I seem to have less gas after eating one.
Maxeene waters straightening her hair or sportin’ a stylish wig hat on her head ain’t cultural appropriaition? Or moochie? Or any of dozens of black performers? Gimme a break. Will someone demand reparations for when dudes perming their was in vogue? I didn’t say style you notice.
Okay, so all those illegals working at Denny’s making up platters of American food are racists then too.
Spray painting Judenfrei might help
Only whitey can flip burgers.
Well those Hispanic idiots better not eat at chipotle then cause it was founded by a racist white guy...Hispanics LOVE chipotle! This PC=Pure Crap is getting out of hand!!!
If I had a nickle for all the times I have seen “Cajun” food outside of Louisiana. One menu even offered “Black and Red Fish”, apparently confused about the actual dish known as blackened red fish. Yet you won’t see me complaining about my culture being mis-appropriated.
I guess I better stop making my Spam burritos. Don’t want to be labeled a racist
Sucking all the fun and light-heartedness out of life - definitely the calling card of the political left.
Looks delicate to me.
I thought judging people based on skin color, not ability, was racist. Hmmm. If whitey makes a good burrito, why shouldn’t whitey succede? If Hose-A is a great firefighter, why shouldn’t Hose-A get the firefighter job that’s open?
Let us inform the low IQ dork starting this that we shall now use his rules.
We forbid anyone to appropriate white guy culture.
So, that buttwipe can 1) unplug everything, 2) forget about heating/AC/clean water/good medicine/literature, welfare and 3) virtually everything about advanced civilization.
So, go back to your “culture” and enjoy it, for the few years you’ll live before something eats you.
I know a couple who own an Italian restaurant.
He is Pakistani and she is Brazilian?
What would the SJWs do with that?
“Black and Red Fish” lol!
Good thing I didn’t see that error, sometimes, I will compulsively (but respectfully) inform the writer of their mistake. I used to just blurt it out, “Who wrote this??” as I’ve aged, I have learned some people do not want to be ‘corrected’ at all!
I WANT THAT RECIPE!!!! =)
My favorite is Jambalaya - often described on menus as "served over rice pilaf". Non!
I just imagine Justin Wilson shaking his head in dismay - and turn to another part of the menu.
