June 17, 20205 yr I highly suggest going through that Domino's thread on Twitter. Rick Wilson is getting destroyed . People are now digging up his old tweets and having a field day with them.
June 17, 20205 yr Rick Wilson is a Never Trumper, but I think he’s been a Republican for decades. #ETTD

They are most damaging to people who either dont fit the stereotype or reject its premise entirely (even though they may 'fit'). Negative stereotypes are exceptionally damaging, and this one has ties to offensive racial practices. I dont see this one as a wholly negative stereotype and personally, I like the whole aunt jemima vibe and would embrace the role for myself if it fit... but, I get it. Having said that, is someone named Jemima ever invites me to her house for some down home cooking, you better believe I am going.

June 17, 20205 yr We're probably going to need to just go ahead and rename white and brown rice while we're at it.

As far as Uncle Ben's and Aunt Jemima go, to me that's really a gray area. Is there substantive demand or even support for that among the black community? Is it harmful to the standing of blacks in America to have that imagery? To me it seems like those companies 1. trying to "get ahead" of any possible controversy and 2. gain some kind of positive feeling from the black community on this ("virtue signal") and 3. get cred with the woke whites. Maybe I'm too cynical. I just don't see people worrying over Aunt Jemima.
