IF she really did this, then I no longer have any sympathy for her. But its a big if.
I never knew that Aunt Jemima worked for the Quaker Oats guy. How much does he pay her?
What’s the point? Wasn’t there just a clothing store owner who made his private jet crew dress rather, differently?

Is that a problem?
Are blacks ashamed of the highly esteemed colored lady?
She was what 90% of black people will never be
“Paula Deen Allegedly Asked Black Staffers to Dress Like Aunt Jemima”
Hell, if Paula wrote me big enough of a check I’d dress up like Aunt Jemima, Col. Sanders, or Cap’n Crunch!
Whatever, just so we’re not talking about Benghazi, the IRS, or Shaun Donovan’s plan to destroy white middle class suburbs by exporting the inner city underclass to them.
Um, I guess some people are sensitive to dressing like historical characters.
When I was a girl, we visited New Orleans frequently, and black women who worked at some famous praline place in the French Quarter dressed in AuntJemima-type costumes. Those women could not have been more pleasant, charming, delightful. Clearly not bothered or “degraded.”
My family has been here since 1650. I might be asked to wear ugly aprons and boots my greatgreatgreatgreat grammie wore crossing the plains in a wagon. Would I object? Well, for fashion reasons probably. But for historical reasons, I’d be proud.
Why is this not a straight-across analogy? How come you are different if you are black? I don’t think anyone was as downtrodden as some very poor pioneer women who lived in the harshest conditions imaginable, watched their babies die and buried them on the plains never to see even their graves again as the wagon trains rumbled on.
that photo doesn’t look like anything other than someone ringing a dinner bell, like my “crackuh” aunt used to do...
that claims the former Food Network star asked black employees to dress like Aunt Jemima.
So what?
If blacks are all about “civil rights” and freedom, then why didn’t they balk and bring this to light when they were fist asked to participate.
If the took the gig, and dressed in that garb, then - by actions- they are as “guilty” as Deen of “racism”.
Those Uncle Ben’s and Aunt Jemimah outfits are far better looking than the ass-hangining-out-calf-length ghetto attire of today, with the stupid-ass flat-billed ghetto baseball caps and Aire Jordan’s in day-glo orange!
She’s a huge DEMOCRAT....they are ALL RACIST, even the BLACK ONES!!
Suddenly, I have me a hankerin for some flapjacks and sausage dripping in syrup.
