"Question: If "Song Of The South" is too offensive to be released, then why are Aunt Jemima's Pancake Mix and Uncle Ben's Rice still being marketed?"
The companies that make those products paid their racism offsets to Je$$e Jack$on, so now their diversity footprint is balanced.
I must admit that I was quite amazed that the classic "Aunt Jemima" image survived as long as it did - it was a very stereotypical image of the "happy darky" working as a domestic, or maybe even a slave. It was still in use long after the general public attitudes towards such things had changed. "Uncle Ben" I never thought about as much, maybe because he wasn't as stereotypical looking to me, and I had completely forgotten about Cream of Wheat's "Rastus". In any case, I always just thought of "Rastus" as a chef, no racial connotations particularly, although blacks may have felt otherwise.
