Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben's Name and Visual Image Rehaul Lights up Social Media

You sat back and said nothing when they tore down that statue of Thomas Jefferson

You fanned me away when they announced schools named for Jefferson and Washington would be renamed

But now it's too late

You could have stopped this https://t.co/WFCAk7GkKO

Uh... Can we please stop enabling these Critical Theory Weirdos?

Removing Aunt Jemima from syrup? Cancelling Uncle Ben?

Seems like now they're just intent on removing black people, Brown People, and women from everything.

Tell me guys, how did Aunt Jemima oppress yall?

Aunt Jemima: Gets canceled by leftists

Aunt Jemima is a syrup for pancakes. It's never been racist and now you are removing the iconic image? You're taking guns away from Yosemite Sam and Elmer Fudd too?

I hope your businesses dry up faster than it takes you to make these moves

Yah. Aunt Jemima is a 'harmful stereotype'.

A smiling, cheerful, black woman. Heaven forbid... 😂 https://t.co/eW3O0AcCqL

They’re changing Aunt Jemima as a brand image but keeping High Fructose Corn Syrup as the main ingredient.

I can’t think of a better example to show how the outrage mob has their priorities mixed up.

A lotta people are upset about the removal of Aunt Jemima, probably because it’s the only black person they know.

Looking forward to a full day of people defending Aunt Jemima 🥴

Thoughtful take on evolving from racist branding like #AuntJemima pancakes and removing Confederate flags and statues - these are encouraging signs of a maturing society. Time to put away childish things, America. https://t.co/59PxyXQhWm

There were people who didn't know Aunt Jemima was racist? Do y'all also think Uncle Ben is a homage to Peter Parker's uncle? DO YOU THINK THE WASHINGTON REDSKINS IS OKAY?

People are up in arms claiming they didn't know that Aunt Jemima was based on a racist stereotype and that pretty much sums up America's race problem in a nutshell.

- For decades, brand uses imagery of black stereotypes intended to make white people feel comfortable

- Brand changes imagery because racism

- Man complains "but she was the only black person who made me feel comfortable"

Since Quaker Oats officially changed the face of Aunt Jemima to Diamond & Silk can we get Van Jones face on Uncle Ben's Rice? pic.twitter.com/1cUVGdwgnA

I am now laughing about the next Green Book-style “let’s center a movie about race relations on a white guy” movie being about this guy’s meaningful relationship with an Aunt Jemima bottle.

“I love you, Aunt Jemima,” as he hugs the bottle while crying. https://t.co/oAgOv5WnKE

I've been Black my whole life and never met anyone or had an Aunt named #AuntJemima pic.twitter.com/sp3eXswjY6

I understand the original #AuntJemima logo was a racist sterotype but what's wrong with the current version? Betty Crocker was a sterotype. Brand icons get updated all the time. What if it was just called Jemima, or her hair was modern? What, exactly, is racist about it today? pic.twitter.com/sVkRcW3TOh

Before you form your lips to say something about #AuntJemima and how it's not racist, pls redirect yourself to these pictures: pic.twitter.com/hfXYE5VLA6

Since #AuntJemima is cancelled, is the Cream of Wheat guy next? pic.twitter.com/ptFVEgzSMI

It’s not that Aunt Jemima was a symbol of a racist past, she was the very embodiment of a racist past. She will not be missed by anyone who knew that. pic.twitter.com/7F3yx62oYX

People legit waking up to die on the hill claiming Aunt Jemima isn't rooted in racism when ads like this exist. pic.twitter.com/HZt2YU2Gwj
