Re: Racism
Any from black people? 'Cause I have friends who can hook you up with that black-on-whiteboy racism.
Who knows? Maybe, you were kidnapped, tied up, taken away and held for ransom.

Just tell 'em the miscegenation is really far down the list. It really is hard for me to fathom this level of ignorance and hate. Even if they do feel it is wrong, why the fuck do they feel the need to say anything?

I have the same thought, and planned to type "dead" randomly one day, months from now, when the thread is long forgotten.

Re: Racism
What is the general consensus on Aunt Jemima as pinnacle of racism? Working on an issue where several coworkers were making fun of each other's outfits. The only black employee was wearing a dress and hat that one guy said made him feel like he was living in the 1800s, somebody else said it looked like the Quaker Oats guy, and another said it looked like Aunt Jemima. For context, it is an 8 person office, open floor, where everyone is very close, hand out after work, frequently tease and joke. The black woman has made some jokes about the Jewish woman that, out of context, seem horrific, but the Jew-broad said she found it funny, that is the office atmosphere.
The guy that made the comment doesn't think Aunt Jemima is an offensive name, but I always thought, along with Uncle Ben it held some racist undertones. The guy had a great comment; "if Aunt Jemima is racist, why is she on my pancake box?"

Re: Racism
This is interesting. For those who read Devil in the White City, same World's Fair.
Naturally, Auntie J didn't own the brand or the recipe, she was just a marketing gimmick.Green’s identity was first uncovered at the Worlds’ Columbian Exposition in 1893. There were so many people interested in the Aunt Jemima exhibit, police were called for crowd control. Green served pancakes to thousands of people. People loved her warm personality and friendly demeanor, not to mention her cooking. Green was given an award for showmanship at the exposition. As a result of her dedication, Aunt Jemima received 50,000 orders for pancake mix. Not only did flour sales soar, but Green received a lifetime contract to serve as spokesperson.
She was a living legend of the brand until she died in a car accident in September 1923.

Re: Racism
That sounds like a completely fine working atmosphere. Diverse, multicultural and everybody treats everyone else like they are being roasted. The only people who get indignant over a situation with unsettling words is the passerby who is shocked (SHOCKED!) to hear such language.
I have yet to be in a situation where I can call a black friend "Uncle Jemima." That'll be a fun day.

I just wanted to tell the guy that the biggest offensive was ruining a perfectly good joke by someone else to add your own stupid joke. And when has Aunt Jemima ever worn a wide brimmed hat? The guy gave me some examples of their typical office banter, and I just couldn't hold in the laughter. The guy actually said he was embarrassed that this joke is the one being investigated, as it wasn't funny. He assured me he is much funnier than that joke. I don't doubt it, he had me trying not to crack up the whole time.
