[Opinions] Re: Jemima
I love Jemima, but I do think the pancake mix (and the syrup) makes it unusable, all the more so because the original depiction of Aunt Jemima and the old advertising campaigns for the product were so horribly racist. Quite a few people object to the fact that the character exists even today, even though pearl earrings have replaced the bandanna. It's a shame, because it's a charming name, really.

Agree, it's problematic when you start talking about "reclaiming". nt  ·  Teacups  ·  3/29/2012, 8:39 PM
