I'm sorry I have to speak on this but
when 'Aunt Jemima' brand is changing its name and removing the image
of Aunt Jemima because Quaker says it is 'based on a racial
stereotype”, I have to speak out.

When has 'Aunt Jemima' ever been
thought of as being racial? I have bought the brand because Aunt
Jemima brings to my mind a picture of a woman who is a wonderful cook
who knows delicious recipes.

Perhaps Quaker should change their name
from 'Quaker' as that name can also be termed as being racial!?

"As we work to make progress
toward racial equality through several initiatives, we also must take
a hard look at our portfolio of brands and ensure they reflect our
values and meet our consumers' expectations," Kristin Kroepfl,
CEO of Quaker Foods North America, said in a statement. "We
recognize Aunt Jemima's origins are based on a racial stereotype.
While work has been done over the years to update the brand in a
manner intended to be appropriate and respectful, we realize those
changes are not enough."

Aunt Jemima's first appeared in1889 and perpetuates the "mammy" racial caricature of African American women, activists say.

The mammy caricature "portrayed an
obese, coarse, maternal figure. She had great love for her white
'family'.

What utter claptrap!! I feel sick.

Just hours later, the owner of the
Uncle Ben's brand of rice says the brand will "evolve" in
response to concerns about racial stereotyping.

Land O'Lakes announced recently it
would no longer use the Native American woman who had graced its
packages of butter, cheese and other products since the late 1920s.

Exactly what has any of that got to do
with the MURDER of another black person by racial thugs wearing a
police uniform?

I have now been taken to task for
saying ALL lives matter not just black lives.

According to my attackers saying "All
Lives Matter" redirects the attention from Black lives, who are
the ones in peril.

Excuse me. If you read any or all the
many articles we have published from Freedom United, you will see it
is not just black lives that are in danger.

We have published a story from them
today “I was trafficked from the Philippines into modern slavery”.
See:

When I shout “BLACK LIVES MATTER” I
am not saying “ALL LIVES MATTER”. I will NOT change my stance on
this.

SORRY.

ALL LIVES MATTER! EVER SINGLE ONE!!!!

His. Hers. Yours. …....... and
MINE!!!
