@danielkrause13573 years ago As a black man, this offends me.
Months ago when the Land O Lakes Native American Lady got removed I was both confused and angry, but mostly confused.
I didn't know her whole backstory, but I knew that Aunt J was a real person and I found it inspiring that a black woman was a mascot for ANYTHING, given the time they lived in.
But now things are suddenly soooo FUCKING Racist to uneducated dumbasses, they don't see that THEY are the ones being Racist! They are erasing true and original representation because they are told/taught that it is under the guise of 'equality'!
Since 2011 or 2014 things have gone to shit! This infuriates me so much how far this has gotten. AND IT NEEDS TO STOP!!!!!
But that's the narcissistic attitude of "WOKE PROGRESSIVES". You ask "Hasn't this gone too far?" They reply "No! We haven't gone far enough!"
And I'm fucking sick and tired of it. ... 11

@SamtheBravesFan3 years ago They've essentially erased all their brand name recognition now too. Who's going to buy "Pearl Milling Company Syrup?" If it's some other cutesy name, they're going to have to tell people that it's Aunt J syrup without mentioning Aunt J because ree. ... 69

@darkguardian13143 years ago If I (Black man) ever do something great and leave a legacy, how will I be viewed a 100 years from now?
Will my image be judged as "racist" because of how I talk or dress for my time period?
Will they try to modernize me to look more like them?
This is what is happening right now. ... 30

@scottconwell21463 years ago Growing up? A warm, kind image. Honestly don't think I focused on her as a black female, as a child, or as an adult. Didn't think it was stereotyping, don't think so, now. Fixing without historical perspectives on individuals, is just having a hammer, & only seeing all as nails. Great perspectives added here, Mecha! Thank you! Banana pancakes sounds great!. Try mixing a little precooked oatmeal in. Will add yet more creamy flavor & texture. Might need a little more cooking. Try before showing.... ... 32

@markhoffart6223 years ago Why didn't they put Nancy Green's name on the syrup? If the yahoos were thinking they could put her name and pic on the syrup bottle with a small blurb and a link to a web page with the full story. Bet that would have made the news... ... 9

@agnesroman93263 years ago They can't accept when people succeed on their own terms, compared to playing the victim game and just when things handed to them without when putting effort or any work into becoming a better person, no matter what their background is. Brie Larson comes to mind, a lot as a great example. Apu from the Simpsons is more respectable when it comes to being a hard-working immigrant like my parents had been for years. And even they say that you need to work hard to get where you want to be. They started with only two suitcases and didn't ask anyone for free handouts. ... 7

@Bigdave2033 years ago I wish these white liberals would quit getting offended for me. I'm a black from a black family with a black wife and kids. Since she and Uncle Ben featured a positive black representation we have purchased the brands. We can have rap stars who write misagynist lyrics, promote drug use and disrespect law enforcement and that's ok. We can have sports stars and hollywood vwhose ideals I don't want my kids following. Positive representation of hard working blacks chefs, business owners, nurses etc are not ok. This is Beyond OFFENSIVE my family will be boycotting pearl milling ... 3

@jenniferlarson64263 years ago I'll never buy anything made by the Pearl Milling Company. This is just crap and who is it helping by doing this...I don't understand that part because I never looked at a container of Aunt Jemima syrup as a symbol of racism. I viewed the product as one made and perfected by someone's grandmother....not a symbol of racism, but if the company wants less sales....they'll get their wish. When they take Uncle Ben's picture off that box of rice...that's it for me. I love Uncle Ben and again...never looked at it as a symbol of racism, but a professional chef who perfected and packaged good quality rice that's easy to prepare. This is all crap. ... 1

@law06033 years ago We've solved racial justice by erasing a black woman from pancakes. We did it y'all!
On a side note, I don't get what was so triggering about her or even Uncle Ben. They're not stereotypical caricatures with enlarged lips or people in black face ... 1
@

@ketami23 years ago It's funny to me that people get upset by some past stereotypes. Sure it's a stereotype now, but all stereotypes start somewhere. Both my mother and her parents had neighbors that looked like this "stereotype" growing up. I'm not saying stereotypes can't become insulting but i don't think anyone now a days would assume that all black women look and act like this. For anyone to believe something that insulting, they'd have to be pretty dumb.... What am i saying, look where we are now.... ...
