LOL.
Look at the picture of the Black guy on the Cream of Wheat label.
He’s neither a shuffling minstrel stereotype, nor a ghetto gangbanger.
He looks like a middle class Black dude— maybe a lawyer or an accountant.
Why is this racist? Or is it the association with Cream of Wheat that’s racist?
Does this mean it’s racist to use Black people to advertise foods which both Black & White people might enjoy?
Do we see what’s happening here?
The Wokesters have decreed that ANY depictions of Black people ANYWHERE for any reason— are now racist and must be removed from sight!
Yep, I'm going to hell for this one...
And just like that, Eddie Murphy loses a joke. When he played Buckwheat, one of his kids was named Kereem Of Wheat.
Nobody’s protesting Martha White......................
