An alternate view of Aunt Jemima

No, weary of some sock trying to save face. Run along now

That's being triggered you dipshit. Not being triggered means not having your mental state negatively affected by online arguments.

If you say so Fort Curried

Think hard. What's the odds of two people calling anyone Bingo on some obscure forum?

LoL

There is no alternative view for Aunt Jemima.

Think hard? Are you working at this Struggle Bus? How Fucking Sad.

Well this country didn't only just stop treating the Irish as victims of an apartheid state only 60 years ago with the entire former white South voting not to end it.

Pretending the Irish experience in America is comparable to that of black chattel slaves is a testament to white fragility.

Not this again.

You owe whites for your American citizenship

I was brought here against my will, so I don't owe a damn thing.

I consider this a current event since woke libs want to rewrite history by demonizing Aunt Jemima

Just because it's the first time you saw it posted on Facebook does not mean it is a current issue. There should be a meme for this.

Nope, I'm not white. According to people like you I can't be racist because I don't hold the power. Make up your minds.



Who removed all the minorities off of packaging and let the white people stay on? Was it the left or the right?

Racists come in many flavors.
and
The Businessowners removed the images. Perhaps you should ask them why.
You're whining about it because the imagery of a black servant fits your racist views.

 

[Dadoalex]

the fact that her family finally did get compensation was a good thing.

Why take the money if the image was insulting?
The color of money overcomes many objections to racism.
Just ask the stars of Amos n Andy.

But we didn't dwell on it... for a century or more

You didn't have to dwell on it, your asses decided that you were white and became part of the problem.

“In the early years of immigration the poor Irish and blacks were thrown together, very much part of the same class competing for the same jobs. In the census of 1850, the term mulatto appears for the first time due primarily to inter-marriage between Irish and African Americans. The Irish were often referred to as Negroes turned inside out and Negroes as smoked Irish. A famous quip of the time attributed to a black man went something like this: "My master is a great tyrant, he treats me like a common Irishman." Free blacks and Irish were viewed by the Nativists as related, somehow similar, performing the same tasks in society. It was felt that if amalgamation between the races was to happen, it would happen between Irish and blacks. But, ultimately, the Irish made the decision to embrace whiteness, thus becoming part of the system which dominated and oppressed blacks. Although it contradicted their experience back home, it meant freedom here since blackness meant slavery.

An article by a black writer in an 1860 edition of the Liberator explained how the Irish ultimately attained their objectives: "Fifteen or twenty years ago, a Catholic priest in Philadelphia said to the Irish people in that city, 'You are all poor, and chiefly laborers, the blacks are poor laborers; many of the native whites are laborers; now, if you wish to succeed, you must do everything that they do, no matter how degrading, and do it for less than they can afford to do it for.' The Irish adopted this plan; they lived on less than the Americans could live upon, and worked for less, and the result is, that nearly all the menial employments are monopolized by the Irish, who now get as good prices as anybody. There were other avenues open to American white men, and though they have suffered much, the chief support of the Irish has come from the places from which we have been crowded."

Once the Irish secured themselves in those jobs, they made sure blacks were kept out. They realized that as long as they continued to work alongside blacks, they would be considered no different. Later, as Irish became prominent in the labor movement, African Americans were excluded from participation. In fact, one of the primary themes of How the Irish Became White is the way in which left labor historians, such as the highly acclaimed Herbert Gutman, have not paid sufficient attention to the problem of race in the development of the labor movement.

And so, we have the tragic story of how one oppressed "race," Irish Catholics, learned how to collaborate in the oppression of another "race," Africans in America, in order to secure their place in the white republic. Becoming white meant losing their greenness, i.e., their Irish cultural heritage and the legacy of oppression and discrimination back home.”

Donttazmebro is an Asian who has adopted white racism since he has adopted the white supremacist narrative of the Republican party. He does so in order to seek acceptance. That is called internalized racism and it is one of the psychoogical effects of white racissm on non white people.

You're going to fix it by voting for an old, rich, white guy who said he doesn't want his kids in the same room as you, right?

LOL!

That's why such people are called sellouts. They literally sell their pride and honor for a check.

Mac7 must be retarded.

 

[Mac-7]

Freedom isn't whites to give. That isn't reality. That's frail white cosplay.

Ok

So you think slavery is fake news?

 

[The Duke]

Sure I can, but you already know why black folks hate that perception of mammy.

 

[The Duke]

Is that supposed to be funny? It was white folks who denied us of freedom, we stepped off the ship as illegals just as you did, except we were in chains. Aunt Jemima reminds you of the Good Ole Days.

Not all black people in America did, moron.

 

[The Duke]

Yup, they got rid of her, which was the goal all along.

They say it's to fight racism, but the end effect is erasing all semblances of red and black people from view.

I consider this a current event since woke libs want to rewrite history by demonizing Aunt Jemima

“A great woman erased from history by idiots.
The branding of the syrup was a tribute to this woman’s gifts and talents. Now future generations will not even know this beautiful woman existed. What a shame. 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 all Americans. She maintained her job until her death in 1923, at age 89. This was a remarkable woman, and sadly she has been ERASED by politics. I wanted you to know and remind you in this cancel culture time period.”

This is a cut and paste from Facebook

Hardly erased.
