Former Chick-fil-A Boss Dan Cathy Suggests White People Shine Black People’s Shoes in Resurfaced Video

Dan Cathy, the son of Chick-fil-A founder S. Truett Cathy, got down on his knees at a church in Atlanta in June 2020 as the city was gripped by protests over the police-involved deaths of George Floyd and Rayshard Brooks.

This isn’t very nice of the New York Post to dig up old dirt on Chik-Fil-A.

But in all honesty - I don’t care.

The people that work for them are very nice overall. Their corporate policy won’t let them allow tips and that pisses me off.

A nearby Chick-fil-A closed down for a while to add a second lane for all their business. Are they gonna mess up their success by going woke?

When black folks learn how to speak proper English I might consider it.......which means I’ll never have to consider it.

True

I like the sandwiches but they’re way overpriced

Since he’s shown this side, I do not set foot in there. I’m not sure if I have even once.

I just searched by Chik-Fil-A, and this wasn’t there. I posted something else about them yesterday.
