The 1st Lady of Love fully agreed. That is there pancakes not anyone else’s, period. Rich white folk have a way of take take taking..... hmmmm it angers me . They take advantage to the fullest and someone needs to do something about it for real. Think about.
Yeah she had a lifetime contract, but when she became too old to market the brand, she had to clean houses into her 80’s because that contract they had her sign locked her into a low ball agreement. Brand takes off and makes tons of money, but she never saw the benefits of that. She got hit by a car and buried in an unmarked grave. The company obviously didn’t value her, only what she could provide for them.
@1970Gambino that’s the history of America... robbed from slaves for immense WEALTH...this story is played out ALL OVER the making of America... the theft is overwhelming!!!
I do hear that, but political correctness has to be in context. For example someone who sold and profited from slavery or who fought wars to keep people enslaved should not be "honored" but people who contributed to make this world a better, brighter and happier place deserve to be recognized with real depictions of what they looked like and not the minstrel cartoonish depictions.
You're so right...I certainly believe that people...everyone, regardless of their ethnicity, certainly deserves respect, but the thing you mentioned, about so-called Political Correctness, nauseates me...after all, Right, Wrong or Indifferent, we should not try and reshape history. It is what it is...that goes for the removal of statues, as well. Thanks for the intelligent comment!

I admit, as a “white woman” the unveiling on Nancy Greens head stone made me tear up. It was simple, yet so beautiful. Please don’t “cancel” Aunt Jemima pancakes. She deserves to be remembered. I never saw her a racist symbol. I saw her as trusted person who made some awesome pancakes....because my own Mom struggled to cook.
The problem with that is "Aunt Jemima" is not her name it's a Pickananny name bestowed on her by yea you guessed it Racist White people made to profit off the back of Black Queen Nancy Green.
You ALMOST got it right. But then you just spewed ignorance for YOUR own comfort. "She" and the other 2 women, should be remembered. And black people should have representation....other than being depicted in positions of perpetual servitude
@@barbarawalker6475 Aunt Jemima was a character created by a white man who painted his face & mocked black women at minstrel shows & the name “Aunt Jemima” is suppose to mock the way black women say “Ain’t your momma”
Aunt Jemima is a hero. They even made an episode of South Park where she saves the day. Why was this cancelled? She fits a stereotype? What does that even mean? How many other people have a story like hers?
Aunt jemima was meant to be a black stereotype that White America could rely on for "good food" and we just know better than to continue to exploit her Nanny image. Either way the pancakes will taste the same regardless of who is on the box.
@TheFinalBoss Please stop trying to cause trouble, with your negativity. No one is getting rid of the products, they are rebranding them, which I disagree with, but the products will still be there.
@TheFinalBoss you are such an idiot. How many "African American success stories " do you think are receiving royalties or any compensation from these brands?
Never realized that my favorite “Aunt” was a slave. Just thought of as a person who owned a restaurant and was known for her great pancakes. So sad that people had to make a racist issue out of her picture. I imagined her as a beautiful grandmother who made the best pancakes. And all her family joined her at home looking forward to their favorite breakfast..
@@emi11iana I love how some white folks push racism when guess what?? YOUR WHITE TOO. There isn't anymore racism other than the racist crap you people keep pushing.
The company used a "Mammie" image to sell the pancakes. Look into the history of that. I support the discontinuation of the figure. I wanted it to be removed right from childhood..
I can't believe especially after hearing this that the companies are fading out the name and photo of Aunt Jemima items still. Seriously I feel its more insulting and rude to take that away than to just keep it. Put the real woman's name and photo as well as a short version of her story on the box if they're going to change it so the story doesn't die. Things like this is how history is forgotten.
pepsico probably didnt know ... have you ever beem through a corporate acquisition? people just spout of judgmental bullshit with no clue what TF they are talking about.
They Should Have Never-Ever Taken This Beautiful Ladie's Face Off Of The Bottle..!! She Worked Hard, And Made Something Out Of Herself And Made HER AMERICAN DREAM..!! ❤🇺🇸
@anger & rage I'm Native American fuckwad. My best friend's mom wore a kerchief on her head and a smock while she cooked the best fried chicken in the world. She wasn't posing for no god damn pancake box she was a real person and your racist bullshit is disrespectful to her and women like her.
@anger & rage Yea tell that to my grandpa and grandma that were born on a reservation in Oklahoma. I have their birth certificates proudly framed on the wall of my office. Also try and tell my 78 year old single female black neighbor that I'm racist when I cut her grass for free and avoid her when she tries to pay me. Oh guess what, she drinks malt liquor, I guess that's racist too right? Some people are proud of their heritage, you must be a sad pitiful little punk ashamed of yourself for being black. What you need to do is accept and embrace your color instead of blaming others for your own individual shortcomings. Get a fucking life kid.
My grandmother's mother was a slave and my grandmother was a domestic for a wealthy family for years. I am so proud to see these families recognizing these brave wonderful women who are so much a part of our American history.
I'm from Jamaica and Aunt Jemima is the best, why would anyone wanna take something so delicious and rooted😣 I hate how they wanna erase "the good thing them".
no one is suggesting to change the recipe, but rebrand the product. The nostalgia you have from the packaging is rooted in exploitation, what is the difficulty in understanding that?
The cancel culture sucks. This is why Pepsi Co. has decided to take this brand away. So sad that a entire story with it will also be washed away. I vote to keep Aunt Jamima in our kitchens across the world. We don’t want her to go anywhere!
Literally no black person asked for this rebranding. We love Aunt jemima and what would be better is renaming it Aunt Nancy. I hope pepsico listens and doesn't erase this legacy.
A young black woman did a famous Tik Tok skit expressing outrage over Aunt Jemima. Millions of people saw it and commented. Do your research. That's what started this movement, after Black Lives Matter and the murder of George Floyd.
The name needs to be changed at least “Aunt Jemima” came from a white man mocking black women at a minstrel show Aunt Jemima is suppose to mock the way black women say “Ain’t your momma”
When I was a young boy decades ago, there was a promotion hosted by the company that produced the pancake mix. That's when I met Aunt Jemima. I ran up to her embracing her because to me she was a celebrity who I admired as the face of a product I loved. And, I loved her. She was a delightful person and it didn't matter in the least that she was a Black woman. I am sorry that all of this political correctness is removing the positive aspects of Black culture that many of us remember fondly.
Black people didn't but African Americans who have knowledge of self and their lineage did. These companies should've originally used Mrs. Green as the brand character. Instead they kept the world in the dark of this truth & still some find nothing wrong with this. Wake up!
@@johanmassy5290 we wasny in the dark real balck people know all the important people. But they trying to make balck people out to be some whining babies we are not thinking about that we have bigger things to worry about than a label.
I say if white people really want to do something how about giving us some reparation. Im still waiting for my 40acres & a mule, but id settle for cash. When we talk reparation they dont want to hear that, but they want to remove aunt jemima & uncle ben from ppl minds huh like black ppl & slavery didnt existed like they want no images or history to trace back to slavery, they want no accountability. Where's our reparation for 400years of slavery?!!! We been enslaved more than we been free. Money talks bullshit walk. And the aunt Jemima thing is bullshit.
@@bigman4407 reparations can come in the form of land tax abatements or 850 + credit scores!!!! It's about thinning the wealth gap. Not buying a Cadillac
I am a white woman who was raised in Aunt Jemima waffles. Wonderful memories of my family sitting around the breakfast table eating my delicious meal and having fun with my parents and two younger sisters. Are you really saying your going to destroy my childhood memories because the country is s going crazy right now!? I loved the lady on the waffle box and so did my daughter's, grandchildren, AND my great-grandchildren! I promise that if you bend to the bullies of our society I will never buy ANY of your products again!
She did not invent the pancake mixs. She was the very first person to have her picture on the box. Nancy traveled all over the country. She did alot for this business. But this company wanted to go to Paris and she said no. She was not going to get on a boat and spend 3 weeks crossing the ocean. So they let her go. She was not a millionaire. But she got to travel. She died from being hit by a automobile. She was 89. Her picture being removed from these boxes and syrup bottles are just plain idiotic. Nancy is one reason why that company excel.
So a woman’s innovation, recipe and ‘spirit’ were used, but her identity, name and real history were deemed irrelevant. It wasn’t the PC phase-out that erased her history; the profiting company did that, by deeming the *individuals* unimportant. A composite, superficial, fictional image-ambassador could more easily be owned and marketed.
@@kelcibee1648 haven't you ever heard of fashion designers? Their names are all over! As far as pictures/images- many brands and products. Do research.
She didn't create the recipe and there were multiple aunt Jemimas. She, and multiple others were exploited as mascots only. When she died she was still a housekeeper and broke. She was buried in an unmarked grave that took an unrelated historian almost two decades to find. Her family didn't give a shot about Nancy Green until now. What a bullshit puff peace this was. Nancy Green was exploited and used as a side show act for all the ignorant white folks, PERIOD!
I'm a black man and I don't feel like Aunt Jemima's logo was racist. I also like the logo of Uncle Ben's rice and the Mrs. Butterworth's syrup logo. The only logo that was racist was Uncle Remus syrup... "Dis sho' am good."
Aunt Jamina, when her name is Nancy Green? That's a bit telling. It's like calling a white man Woodie when his real name is David. What is a person really saying? We all know that a Pecker Wood is a racist name. Jamina is a "Mammie" name. (house slave name)So they took away the slave cook image, but the name is the same. Hmm. I love your open-mindedness, but don't be fooled. This may just be a political stunt that doesn't bring about any real change. They are starting from the bottom up, instead of the top down.
Poor Uncle Ben he's going to be all by himself now he's going to say damn my old lady is not here no more I'm lonely what the hell is going on😁😆😅🤣😂 what you're seeing here is a liberal lunatic lunacy at its best
Aunt Nancy’s Pancakes with her original picture sounds like a great idea to me👍 Add the story and all the women who contributed to the back of every box👍👍
Ok who specifically should get the money. Didnt the lady pass in the 20'? Which family member even knew they were related to her? Who knew her story? Or should they just pay a relative just because they are a relative?
Nunya Bizness They should pay her direct descendants ie. Her children’s children(grandchildren and great grand children) up unit four generations. That is standard practice. They also could pay her brothers children because they are direct descendant as retainer relatives.
Pepsi Must keep this image of Aunt Jemmima on their packages, and be Proud to have them on their Boxes, forever. I can remember as a boy Wanting that pancake mix, Because of her Smiling Face, and begged my Mother to buy the pancake mix! Please Don't strip her image from your boxes, She represents GOODNESS ITSELF!
You bought into mammie imagery- a trope from the racist roots of America. This debate is nothing new. It's been a long time coming to remove this minstrelstry
Everyone knows the name and the brand. Not only did she serve these pancakes or as she called them flapjacks she served them to current Americans. She should beheld in a place of honor.
My grandmother made pancakes for me every Saturday, while I live with her. I love her. She was born in 1906, May 11. She died February 4, 1990. Thank you God, for letting me be a rich man. Because I was when my Maw walked the earth. I miss her so much. The only person I knew with real common sense.
"A woman (Nancy Green/ Greene) born into slavery created a recipe that many Americans would likely enjoy. The brand (face) is scheduled to be phased out." But that recipe belongs to Nancy Green/ Greene and her family. PepsiCo, are you all going to phase out that recipe also? I mean, if you want to make things "right" and all. I don't believe the pictures are offensive. That name, "Aunt Jamima" is what is offensive due to several women of color being referenced as such and what that "name" is tied to (slavery)." What is the purpose of removing a face when the same face's recipe is being used as well as the packaging name?" Make it make sense. I can assure you, many people of color were not aware that the "Aunt Jamima" pancake mix is produced by PepsiCo. I am pretty certain that many people of color believed that the "Aunt Jamima" mix belonged to the face of the packaging. Either way, the "fuss" should not be about a picture but, about a recipe that belongs to Nancy Green/ Greene and her family that will still be used by the company, "PepsiCo" which that company has been profiting from for decades.
Who won an Oscar for her performance but wasn’t allowed to attend the ceremony because she was black. It’s time to recognize our nations terrible history with race only then can we move forward. I’m an educator and taught many different history curriculums and I’ve seen some outrageous examples of “glossing over” to justifying slavery to calling slaves “helpers who were just happy to be in America” ntm just ignoring instances like the race riot in Tulsa or the murder of Emmet Till and the acquittals of his killers. America is great because we are still here despite our really messed up past. If we could just acknowledge ALL of it we would be much better for it but this trying to teach our kids revisionist history is indoctrination to American Exceptionalism and its why there’s such a backlash now.
Rolan Gold what ? I thought the family was getting money for her recipe for the pancake mix. I didn’t know any one of this. So who’s getting the money ? White ppl ?
Christine...Me too...over the past few months, I've accumulated about a half dozen boxes of Aunt Jemima pancake mix, and nearly two gallons of her pancake syrup, as well! I live in the San Francisco bay area, by the way. Kindest regards. ⚘
I love Aunt Jemima that's part of our history to. I think whoever wants to do away with our Aunt Jemima needs to take a hike. I can remember her since I was a kid what a treat and I'm not young so don't fix what's not broke.
How sad that one black woman erased another black woman' legacy, just because she thought it was racist. It was Mrs. Green's God's given talent, hard work, determination, & her recipe, that connected many households. 😢
The gentleman needs to be careful about the language used; "it's not about the money but the true story..." It IS about the MONEY!!!!!! This family is owed TRILLIONS in royalties. This woman is getting a tombstone nearly a century later 😵
This is a beautiful headstone I just love it and love the story behind it, the company should be a shame of themselves for not helping. Now all we need now is a movie of her life. This would be amazing, really amazing
If PepsiCo removes Au nt Jemima I will no longer buy their products. I'm 65 years old and would appreciate some nostalgia. I love seeing g her beautiful smiling face. THESE ARE THE BEST PANCAKES OUT THERE!!
I prefer waffles. But as a kid, I loved the Saturday morning Aunt Jemima pancakes. My grandmother would use frozen butter and drop it into the batter while it was cooking. It was an art. And depending on what channel the television was on if American Bandstand or Soul Train came on Breakfast was OVER!
Wow this is insane Thank you for this post!! All this time I really thought she was not real till I found out some time in late 90’s .. when our parents asked us what we wanted in the grocery store our first choice was Jemima pancake and syrup,as growing up we didn’t think anything .

I was shocked when i discovered my friend and neighbor was the little Sunbeam bread girl. She passed away a month ago. Lived till almost 80.
Is this TN by chance...
?..
@@lasetlivingstin7752 no sure isn't
It's all good sweetheart...I've seen Sunbeam in TN...Have a blessed day...
Sorry your friend is gone, I miss a few myself...Take care...
God bless you Nancy Green. Known to all as Aunt Jemima. Thank you for feeding our families through the years.
I never Saw aunt jemima racist She's a icon
Maybe you never saw all of the different depictions of her. Quaker & PepsiCo. could've & should use the image of the originator Mrs. Green.
@Jojew nothing childish about it.
🍃 💗 I agree! (Aunt Jemima is a sweet icon.) 🥞 All I saw as a child was a soft, loving woman and scrumptious pancakes! 🍯
there are old pictures of aunt jemima packaging with her chained. so yes it does come from racist origins
@@ouranhshc100
I doubt that! Show me.
I admit, as a “white woman” the unveiling on Nancy Greens head stone made me tear up.
It was simple, yet so beautiful.
Please don’t “cancel” Aunt Jemima pancakes.
She deserves to be remembered. I never saw her a racist symbol. I saw her as trusted person who made some awesome pancakes....because my own Mom struggled to cook.
The problem with that is "Aunt Jemima" is not her name it's a Pickananny name bestowed on her by yea you guessed it Racist White people made to profit off the back of Black Queen Nancy Green.
I almost thought u understood Ms. white woman but then I see u do not understand. Like Gotdamn.
It is a legacy and should never have been removed!
@@m.e.d.7997 Damn right. Even her own decedents are pissed about this and they have the right to be.
You ALMOST got it right.
But then you just spewed ignorance for YOUR own comfort.
"She" and the other 2 women, should be remembered.
And black people should have representation....other than being depicted in positions of perpetual servitude
I want Aunt Jemima to remain on the box. Her updated image, of course....
Updated? Ok. Let's give her Beyonce's face.
I never knew she was real. I feel real bad not knowing all my life.
Me too!
Me too

imagine all the black history we don't know.
@@barbarawalker6475 Aunt Jemima was a character created by a white man who painted his face & mocked black women at minstrel shows & the name “Aunt Jemima” is suppose to mock the way black women say “Ain’t your momma”
Aunt Jemima is a hero. They even made an episode of South Park where she saves the day. Why was this cancelled? She fits a stereotype? What does that even mean? How many other people have a story like hers?
⛤ I miss her FACE on my syrup
A hero?
What did I ever do wrong to get erased off my box and my bottle? I feed y'all for breakfast everyday, and this is the thanks I get?
Weirdo
This is creepy
Bruh
Weirdo
hi ant jemia im 11 nd thank u for making breakfast good every day almost
Why did we have to cancel this? All it is is an awesome black lady who made some kick-ass pancakes
she sho have purty *lips* 😆
Aunt jemima was meant to be a black stereotype that White America could rely on for "good food" and we just know better than to continue to exploit her Nanny image. Either way the pancakes will taste the same regardless of who is on the box.
@TheFinalBoss Please stop trying to cause trouble, with your negativity. No one is getting rid of the products, they are rebranding them, which I disagree with, but the products will still be there.
Her family should be paid $$$,$$$ Period. Now go off! 😊
@TheFinalBoss you are such an idiot. How many "African American success stories " do you think are receiving royalties or any compensation from these brands?
Never realized that my favorite “Aunt” was a slave. Just thought of as a person who owned a restaurant and was known for her great pancakes. So sad that people had to make a racist issue out of her picture. I imagined her as a beautiful grandmother who made the best pancakes. And all her family joined her at home looking forward to their favorite breakfast..
LMFAO i love how hard some white people try to ignore racism
@Lynn Roberts are we going to start speaking correct or?
@@emi11iana I love how some white folks push racism when guess what?? YOUR WHITE TOO. There isn't anymore racism other than the racist crap you people keep pushing.
The company used a "Mammie" image to sell the pancakes. Look into the history of that.
I support the discontinuation of the figure. I wanted it to be removed right from childhood..
@@none_ya001 I'm literally half black half latina LMFAO what are you talking about. Get your head out of your ass
I wish I could get one of her original boxes with her picture on it.
You can still buy it on Amazon while the price hasn’t risen yet. I did last week.
I do have one
I can't believe especially after hearing this that the companies are fading out the name and photo of Aunt Jemima items still. Seriously I feel its more insulting and rude to take that away than to just keep it. Put the real woman's name and photo as well as a short version of her story on the box if they're going to change it so the story doesn't die. Things like this is how history is forgotten.
pepsico probably didnt know ... have you ever beem through a corporate acquisition?
people just spout of judgmental bullshit with no clue what TF they are talking about.
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
@lisangel She sold the recipe to a company a long long time ago. Do your research. She was paid for it. Now this "family' wants handouts.
She was an accomplished African American woman. Social Justice advocates will be sure to supported that.
"Seasons Change, People Change".
Social Justice Warriors only want to suppress freedom of speech.
She will go down in history
through their continued ignorance???
I grew up with that bottle on my table every morning. She will be missed. Sad to see her get cancelled.
Black people wanted her cancelled. That’s what’s so sad about it.
@@atarbuck3452 not black people liberals
Cancel cancel culture.
They Should Have Never-Ever Taken This Beautiful Ladie's Face Off Of The Bottle..!!
She Worked Hard, And Made Something Out Of Herself And Made HER AMERICAN DREAM..!!
❤🇺🇸
The image on the bottle in no way resembles the original "Aunt Jemima" because the original "Aunt Jemima" was a white man in black face.
I think it would be a shame to rebrand this product! She is an icon! Everyone loves Aunt Jemima pancakes and syrup❣️
Aunt Jemima is an icon it would be a shame to change the name
@anger & rage That is how she actually looked and dressed. Maybe it's your racist perception that makes you think it is derogatory.
@anger & rage I'm Native American fuckwad. My best friend's mom wore a kerchief on her head and a smock while she cooked the best fried chicken in the world. She wasn't posing for no god damn pancake box she was a real person and your racist bullshit is disrespectful to her and women like her.
@anger & rage Yea tell that to my grandpa and grandma that were born on a reservation in Oklahoma. I have their birth certificates proudly framed on the wall of my office. Also try and tell my 78 year old single female black neighbor that I'm racist when I cut her grass for free and avoid her when she tries to pay me. Oh guess what, she drinks malt liquor, I guess that's racist too right? Some people are proud of their heritage, you must be a sad pitiful little punk ashamed of yourself for being black. What you need to do is accept and embrace your color instead of blaming others for your own individual shortcomings. Get a fucking life kid.
My grandmother's mother was a slave and my grandmother was a domestic for a wealthy family for years.
I am so proud to see these families recognizing these brave wonderful women who are so much a part of our American history.
This is an image to be proud of. It should not be removed.
The rightful image should be replaced. And the royalties for her decedents.
aged badly
@@SpiritualLifeCoach43 What royalties, the fact that it's greedy or underhanded?
Proud of? It represents black face aka racism...
Says a possible white person
I'm from Jamaica and Aunt Jemima is the best, why would anyone wanna take something so delicious and rooted😣 I hate how they wanna erase "the good thing them".
I'm from Scotland and have never seen this brand but I think her story should be on the box.
@@TheLadyDelirium most definitely should, give unto Cesar what is due so everyone can know her story.
@@BonnieRoyalty Glad you agreed.
@@johanmassy5290 of course, do what's right.
no one is suggesting to change the recipe, but rebrand the product. The nostalgia you have from the packaging is rooted in exploitation, what is the difficulty in understanding that?
Don't erase - redo packaging with Nancy Green!!
The cancel culture sucks. This is why Pepsi Co. has decided to take this brand away. So sad that a entire story with it will also be washed away. I vote to keep Aunt Jamima in our kitchens across the world. We don’t want her to go anywhere!
Because the company did wrong by the original owner. The story should have been told long ago. Before fear of being canceled.
What do you know!? So white liberals speak for black people, but they are full of s#it and have idea what they are talking about!
I bought the last of the original Land 'O Lakes from the store once I heard she was getting canceled! Sad that these companies are now self canceling!
Absolutely!!
@Aaron Sochaczweski how long have they been facing bankruptcy?
Literally no black person asked for this rebranding. We love Aunt jemima and what would be better is renaming it Aunt Nancy. I hope pepsico listens and doesn't erase this legacy.
She was and is a part of American culture and history,please don't erase her from our memories.
She’s an Aunt to all of all people, now I know her legacy and I love her more!
BULLSHIT ... plenty of black people with their fake wokeness think it is racist.
Her name probably was Jemima
A young black woman did a famous Tik Tok skit expressing outrage over Aunt Jemima. Millions of people saw it and commented. Do your research. That's what started this movement, after Black Lives Matter and the murder of George Floyd.
please SAVE "Aunt Jemima" I grew up with this food including my children, PLEASE SAVE the brandxxxxxxxx
The name needs to be changed at least “Aunt Jemima” came from a white man mocking black women at a minstrel show Aunt Jemima is suppose to mock the way black women say “Ain’t your momma”
Aunt Nancy’s pancakes, and tell a readers digest version of her story on every box and a link to read the full story online. 👍
Most definitely
I love this!!!
Yesss 💯
Teach
That is a good name for Aunt Jemima replacement.
When I was a young boy decades ago, there was a promotion hosted by the company that produced the pancake mix. That's when I met Aunt Jemima. I ran up to her embracing her because to me she was a celebrity who I admired as the face of a product I loved. And, I loved her. She was a delightful person and it didn't matter in the least that she was a Black woman.
I am sorry that all of this political correctness is removing the positive aspects of Black culture that many of us remember fondly.
Wow u said this with pride.. Xoxoxo
"Positive aspects of black culture"?
Oh. Ur funny and ignorant.

Great Aunt Jimima.Ms. Dorothy

Don’t faze her out. It’s history and a sweet history.
Balck people did not ask for this we love the brand
Exactly. This is bullshit! Getting rid of aunt Jemima is racist in itself.
Black people didn't but African Americans who have knowledge of self and their lineage did. These companies should've originally used Mrs. Green as the brand character. Instead they kept the world in the dark of this truth & still some find nothing wrong with this. Wake up!
@@johanmassy5290 we wasny in the dark real balck people know all the important people. But they trying to make balck people out to be some whining babies we are not thinking about that we have bigger things to worry about than a label.
I say if white people really want to do something how about giving us some reparation. Im still waiting for my 40acres & a mule, but id settle for cash. When we talk reparation they dont want to hear that, but they want to remove aunt jemima & uncle ben from ppl minds huh like black ppl & slavery didnt existed like they want no images or history to trace back to slavery, they want no accountability. Where's our reparation for 400years of slavery?!!! We been enslaved more than we been free. Money talks bullshit walk. And the aunt Jemima thing is bullshit.
@@bigman4407 reparations can come in the form of land tax abatements or 850 + credit scores!!!! It's about thinning the wealth gap. Not buying a Cadillac
I am a white woman who was raised in Aunt Jemima waffles. Wonderful memories of my family sitting around the breakfast table eating my delicious meal and having fun with my parents and two younger sisters. Are you really saying your going to destroy my childhood memories because the country is s going crazy right now!? I loved the lady on the waffle box and so did my daughter's, grandchildren, AND my great-grandchildren! I promise that if you bend to the bullies of our society I will never buy ANY of your products again!
She was a true entrepreneur God bless her heart in the name of Jesus Christ AMEN!!!
The headstone was so beautiful , made ME cry!
She was a slave, entrepreneurs earn money
amen
She did not invent the pancake mixs. She was the very first person to have her picture on the box. Nancy traveled all over the country. She did alot for this business. But this company wanted to go to Paris and she said no. She was not going to get on a boat and spend 3 weeks crossing the ocean. So they let her go. She was not a millionaire. But she got to travel. She died from being hit by a automobile. She was 89. Her picture being removed from these boxes and syrup bottles are just plain idiotic. Nancy is one reason why that company excel.
So a woman’s innovation, recipe and ‘spirit’ were used, but her identity, name and real history were deemed irrelevant. It wasn’t the PC phase-out that erased her history; the profiting company did that, by deeming the *individuals* unimportant. A composite, superficial, fictional image-ambassador could more easily be owned and marketed.
What big brand has its creator actual photograph on the packaging. People are trying to solve major issues with unrelated solutions.
Kelci Bee For example: “Orville Redenbacher” popcorn - eponymous; “Newman’s Own” salad dressings (and other products) - Paul Newman
@@kelcibee1648 haven't you ever heard of fashion designers? Their names are all over!
As far as pictures/images- many brands and products. Do research.
She didn't create the recipe and there were multiple aunt Jemimas. She, and multiple others were exploited as mascots only. When she died she was still a housekeeper and broke. She was buried in an unmarked grave that took an unrelated historian almost two decades to find. Her family didn't give a shot about Nancy Green until now. What a bullshit puff peace this was. Nancy Green was exploited and used as a side show act for all the ignorant white folks, PERIOD!
@@SuperTROOPER469
C'mon now, she was exploited to everyone. Not just white folks. Even black folks too AND all the other folks.
So, why don’t they put her back, as she deserves?! NOW they’re being racist by stripping her name off the brand smh
Y’all already took the Indian lady off land lakes but y’all kept the land 🤣😭
Exactly. Silly solutions that don't come close to solving the problem

nick sanders She isn’t from India... so.... she isn’t Indian.
JD Bond damn that’s crazy I don’t remember fucking asking
I'm a black man and I don't feel like Aunt Jemima's logo was racist. I also like the logo of Uncle Ben's rice and the Mrs. Butterworth's syrup logo. The only logo that was racist was Uncle Remus syrup... "Dis sho' am good."
Aunt Jamina, when her name is Nancy Green? That's a bit telling. It's like calling a white man Woodie when his real name is David. What is a person really saying? We all know that a Pecker Wood is a racist name. Jamina is a "Mammie" name. (house slave name)So they took away the slave cook image, but the name is the same. Hmm. I love your open-mindedness, but don't be fooled. This may just be a political stunt that doesn't bring about any real change. They are starting from the bottom up, instead of the top down.

Sept 10, 2020: Blessings to Mrs. Nancy Green's legacy and her descendants! Kate xo
My question here stays the same. So why are they going to remove that "Aunt Jemima" brand off the shelf so heart breaking 💔
Aunt Nancy’s Pancakes with her original picture sounds like a great idea to me👍 Add the story and all the women who contributed to the back of every box👍👍
How many food brands have actual photographs on them... white or black. Its not a textbook its a commercial food product.
That's a GREAT idea!!! 💯💯💯❤❤❤😊😊😊
Kelci Bee maybe if more commercial food products acted like textbooks people in the US wouldn’t be so Dumb🤷♂️
Lets keep Aunt Jemima. I love these old black women
They were and still are the back bone of the black community...
To old black women anyone one younger than her is like her child they treat anyone one with respect and they make you feel special
Preserve the heritage of Aunt Jemima ...flap jacks proud woman
That 400 million dollars they so called “set aside” should go to those ladies families point. blank. period. 🤔😑
Yes I agree
That would be fair, but.......You know how corporations work.
Ded, no. Businesses don't work that way.
Ok who specifically should get the money. Didnt the lady pass in the 20'? Which family member even knew they were related to her? Who knew her story? Or should they just pay a relative just because they are a relative?
Nunya Bizness They should pay her direct descendants ie. Her children’s children(grandchildren and great grand children) up unit four generations. That is standard practice. They also could pay her brothers children because they are direct descendant as retainer relatives.
Canceling Aunt Jemima was a bad idea for the Pearl Milling Company, (a subsidiary of PepsiCo). Please bring her back. America needs her.
They should let her story still be told but telling folks who she really was.
Pepsi Must keep this image of
Aunt Jemmima on their packages, and be Proud to have them on their
Boxes, forever.
I can remember as a boy Wanting that pancake mix, Because of her
Smiling Face, and begged my
Mother to buy the pancake mix!
Please Don't strip her image from your boxes, She represents
GOODNESS ITSELF!
You bought into mammie imagery- a trope from the racist roots of America. This debate is nothing new. It's been a long time coming to remove this minstrelstry
Everyone knows the name and the brand. Not only did she serve these pancakes or as she called them flapjacks she served them to current Americans. She should beheld in a place of honor.
"They used what they had to become what they were". What a powerful statement.
🎶like spring without the fall🎶there's only one thing worse in this universe🎶and that's no Aunt Jemima at all....😢
What a gorgeous photo on the plaque. Amazing. Such strength and entrepreneurship, truly a lady to look up to.
My grandmother made pancakes for me every Saturday, while I live with her. I love her. She was born in 1906, May 11. She died February 4, 1990. Thank you God, for letting me be a rich man. Because I was when my Maw walked the earth. I miss her so much. The only person I knew with real common sense.
😰 I’m sure she misses you and proud of the person you became. Do her proud
"A woman (Nancy Green/ Greene) born into slavery created a recipe that many Americans would likely enjoy. The brand (face) is scheduled to be phased out."
But that recipe belongs to Nancy Green/ Greene and her family. PepsiCo, are you all going to phase out that recipe also? I mean, if you want to make things "right" and all.
I don't believe the pictures are offensive. That name, "Aunt Jamima" is what is offensive due to several women of color being referenced as such and what that "name" is tied to (slavery)." What is the purpose of removing a face when the same face's recipe is being used as well as the packaging name?" Make it make sense. I can assure you, many people of color were not aware that the "Aunt Jamima" pancake mix is produced by PepsiCo. I am pretty certain that many people of color believed that the "Aunt Jamima" mix belonged to the face of the packaging. Either way, the "fuss" should not be about a picture but, about a recipe that belongs to Nancy Green/ Greene and her family that will still be used by the company, "PepsiCo" which that company has been profiting from for decades.
She was a legend for making the best pancake mix, she deserves all good things like a proper headstone, and her face deserves to be on that box #blm
I always thought Aunt Jemima was Hattie from Gone With The Wind.
Who won an Oscar for her performance but wasn’t allowed to attend the ceremony because she was black. It’s time to recognize our nations terrible history with race only then can we move forward. I’m an educator and taught many different history curriculums and I’ve seen some outrageous examples of “glossing over” to justifying slavery to calling slaves “helpers who were just happy to be in America” ntm just ignoring instances like the race riot in Tulsa or the murder of Emmet Till and the acquittals of his killers.
America is great because we are still here despite our really messed up past. If we could just acknowledge ALL of it we would be much better for it but this trying to teach our kids revisionist history is indoctrination to American Exceptionalism and its why there’s such a backlash now.

How sad that one black woman erased another black woman' legacy, just because she thought it was racist. It was Mrs. Green's God's given talent, hard work, determination, & her recipe, that connected many households. 😢
How sad that you don't know what the hell you are talking about, and I after I checked you, you are just going to be the racist coward you are. 😢
I can’t believe they canceled Aunt Jemima. She has been popular my whole life.
The gentleman needs to be careful about the language used; "it's not about the money but the true story..." It IS about the MONEY!!!!!! This family is owed TRILLIONS in royalties. This woman is getting a tombstone nearly a century later 😵

So why not rebrand and use her actual name instead of a character of a house maid/nanny named Jemima
Wow this is insane Thank you for this post!! All this time I really thought she was not real till I found out some time in late 90’s .. when our parents asked us what we wanted in the grocery store our first choice was Jemima pancake and syrup,as growing up we didn’t think anything . Shameful they took this icon pancake image out of their products. It’s important not to erase our history. I truly love pancakes. ❤️🥞AUNT JEMINA will live forever in our hearts. (Nancy green)
