Aunt Jemima changing name, removing image 'based on a racial stereotype' from packaging

Quaker Oats acknowledged that the face of the brand was “based on a racial stereotype.”

I wonder where I can send my resume to become a member of the 'THOUGHT POLICE'?
Anyone know how much it pays?

It’s really pretty sad grown adults so desperate for praise and acceptance from the online mobs they change stuff no one was even complaining about. As far as I know no one was complaining it’s hard to keep up with all the outrage of the moment stuff going on right now.

The overly PC nonsense spiral in this country is just getting started. Better get a helmet.

How soon will "Quaker" Oats change their name & image because of possibly offending the Quaker religion??? I mean, do all Quakers make oats?

Quakers, who didn't have slaves and bought the land from the Indians and didn't feel the need to kill and take that which was not theirs..

The official Aunt Jemima website notes that the character of Aunt Jemima was first "brought to life" by Nancy Green. Green was born into slavery in 1834 and R.T. Davis (the brand's owner at the time) used her likeness to represent the the pancake mix into the early 1900s.

“Aunt Jemima advertising played on a certain type of nostalgia and a certain type of racial nostalgia, particularly in the first half of the 20th century about how great plantation life was and how great it was to literally, to have someone like Aunt Jemima who would make the pancakes or whatever for you,” Maurice Manring, author of “Slave in a Box: The Strange Career of Aunt Jemima,” explained in a 2019 interview with NPR. “When you look at old Aunt Jemima ads, you see constantly at a time when middle-class housewives were not able to employ servants, they weren't able to employ their black maid as easily as they did in previous decades, you see constant notation in the ads that you can't have Aunt Jemima today but you can have her recipe and that's the next best thing.”

The jetsam and flotsam complained because Aunt Jemima is black. But they complain about Rice Krispys' Snap, Crackle and Pop are white.

Face it, the overlords don't want brands at all.

I wonder how well "Single Trans Protester Syrup" will sell for the newly-renamed Atheist Oats Company? Will it even be worth looting for?

Anybody seen Mrs Butterworth?

The name of the company is just a name there are no Quakers running about in the factories. PepsiCo inc. owns the company.

I accuse it of increasing bad cholesterol.

Same with Land O Lakes butter.

They got rid of the injun but they kept her land.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

Frank L. White on the box of Cream of Wheat will also have t go.
Maybe the Radical Racist will be happy with just a "censored" banner across his face.

 

[TroglocratsRdumb]

Betty Crocker is sweating right now, not because she is Black, but because she is White.
How far will the Racist Democrats go?
