Agreed. I love her sticky sweetness. It reminds me of home & my Grandma. Genuine comfort food. As a young girl, I imagined that she developed a really tasty recipe so it was named in honor of her. She even got a bottle in her likeness!
These folks want to exercise mind control as if it’s possible to stop racist thoughts if no imagery is available to trigger the thought but they are ignoring reality and personal responsibility.
Some folks may have been triggered to learn more about the history of the brand which might even have ‘spread’ (Pun intended) to learning more about American history in general.
Have you ever heard of Madame C. J. Walker? If not, there’s a lot to know about her. She was one of America’s first black female millionaire entrepreneurs. Successful black female entrepreneurs actually existed but these woke PC enforcers seem to believe they were all only folklore. Isn’t that hypocritically racist?
