Imagine if this was on the menu at NewsCorp? Oh, my.
Stupidest conspiracy of this Century.
How can food be racist?
Is it racist for me to watch Cooking with the Neelys?
The menu is not racist - it’s typical southern black food. Are people offended if the have tacos on May 5th?
It ain't a black or white thing, this is a Southern thing.
It ain't a black or white thing, this is a Southern thing.
What a jerk. I guess he thinks it's hilarious to slander the lady who works hard to cook his food every day.
This is stoooopid! The people that should be ashamed are the ones that were “offended”.
Perhaps, and with any luck the Leftist inspired “Racist” crap will finally be dealt a death blow by the very people the Left have been brazenly using as a tool for their projects for so long.
It’s a nice dream, but Jackson and Sharpton, and their ilk will probably not let it happen. It’s their livlihood at stake.
Heh, and having an Irish meal on Saint Patricks day is RACIST!
The most offensive part of this article is that Jimmie Fallon has his own television show.
1.2M twitter followers for Jimmy Fallon’s drummer?
But this is at the core of the whole multicultural-sensitivity thing. On the one hand, ‘trainers’ would like to re-educate the population against stereotypes (such as Latinos tending to be late) then on the other hand they want to re-educate the population to cultural differences (such as Latinos having a different sense of time). It really is a double-bind.
No watermelon?
Some people need to get a life.
Leslie Calhoun showed them what real food is. :-)
Outlaw fried chicken, collard greens and black-eyed peas. They're racist. It's the only "progressive" way to handle this. We can't have one group eating anything different than another group, now can we? It disrupts the great collective.
So, quit complaining and eat your gruel.
Whats to complain about? That sounds like one of my favorite meals!
Sigh. You can’t have it both ways. If you wish to have elements of your own ethnic culture, such as an ethnic cuisine, which in fact all ethnic cultures proudly and rightfully proclaim, then when that ethnic culture is celebrated by others, including those of your own ethnicity, you simply can’t cry racism.
I’ve seen countless food shows depicting various ethnic restaurants with delectable food, including a number of soul food restaurants, complete with, gasp, African-Americans chowing down! Gosh, and not one complaint of racism about these shows.
This hyper-racism has simply got to stop. It’s akin to crying wolf, and desensitizes everyone to the legitimacy of the actual racism that still occurs in our society. In point of fact, hyper-racism itself focuses on emphasizing the differences of people rather than their similarities and is counter-productive to a harmonious society.
Hyper-racism is simply another form of exploitation, and Obama himself could say these sorts of words I’ve written here when egregious hyper-racism makes it to the main stream media level if he really wanted to promote improved race relations. As an African-American, Obama as President, is in the perfect position in which he could actively promote racial healing by making this a point of emphasis in almost every major speech. But he never does. Why is that?
To almost any objective analyst of society, it’s evident that exploitative hyper-racism is deliberately promoted by the ultra-left as a means of further alienating and isolating certain groups in an effort to herd them into, and keep them, in their own camp. The ultra-left actually cares not one whit for these groups. They simply want their votes, and of course their “cause”. Furthermore, it’s to the advantage of the ultra-left to keep these groups in perpetual poverty and ignorance in order to maintain that “cause” and the unwitting servitude of these groups to the ultra-left.
