friend you Quaker Oats you pusillanimous. Thank god there are other better tasting syrups on the market. I would rather eat wall paper paste than Quaker Oats products.

I bet that company would be rolling in the dough if they would have left it called Darkie Tooth Paste. Who the hell wants a boring tooth paste named Darlie with a picture of a white dude on it? Not me.

Relatives of Aunt Jemima actresses express concern history will be erased

“Relatives of former Aunt Jemima spokeswomen say they are concerned that their family history will be erased as Quaker Oats' moves to rebrand the syrup and pancake mix.

"I understand the images that white America portrayed us years ago. They painted themselves Black and they portrayed that as us," Vera Harris, whose great aunt, Lillian Richard, traveled the country promoting the Quaker Oats brand and portraying the Aunt Jemima character for more than 20 years, told NBC News. "I understand what Quaker Oats is doing because I'm Black and I don't want a negative image promoted, however, I just don't want her legacy lost, because if her legacy is swept under the rug and washed away, it's as if she never was a person."

Sorry Blacks-you can't have it both ways. Either you are going to get rid of ALL your history or not. Make up your minds. Lillian Richards enjoyed many years as a well paid spokeswomen for Quaker Oats of which she personally had ZERO regrets. Pretty soon your only history will be of you looting and burning---and shooting each other. JMO

Quakers in the abolition movement

The Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) played a major role in the abolition movement against slavery
in both the United Kingdom and in the United States of America. Quakers were among the first white people to denounce slavery in the American colonies and Europe, and the Society of Friends became the first organization to take a collective stand against both slavery and the slave trade, later spearheading the international and ecumenical campaigns against slavery.

I think most of this baloney is coming from middle class whites who operate under the assumption that everything and everyone is racist unless proven otherwise.

Such whites prove themselves to be part of the enlightened woke by calling for cancellations, reparations, kneeling and the caretaking of the black race. What the Bush administration referred to as “the soft bigotry of low expectations.”

They don’t really do it for black people. They do it for themselves.

So you're saying the uneducated masses of the 'true woke' are being misled by whitey into the destruction of their own culture and awareness.

I think you're full of baloney.
