The Recent decisions to remove iconic American brands from your product lines is a sad day for American citizens and the memories of both Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben these brands are based on and created by successful African American citizens which you say you are trying to protect . Yet eradicating these brands is the exact opposite of celebrating the black community and black achievements. 

The world knew her as "Aunt Jemima," but her given name was Nancy Green and she was a true American success story. She was born a slave in 1834 Montgomery County, KY... and became a wealthy superstar in the advertising world, as its first living trademark.

Green was 56-yrs old when she was selected as spokesperson for a new ready-mixed, self-rising pancake flour and made her debut in 1893 at a fair and exposition in Chicago. She demonstrated the pancake mix and served thousands of pancakes... and became an immediate star. She was a good storyteller, her personality was warm and appealing, and her showmanship was exceptional. Her exhibition booth drew so many people that special security personnel were assigned to keep the crowds moving.

Nancy Green was signed to a lifetime contract, traveled on promotional tours all over the country, and was extremely well paid. Her financial freedom and stature as a national spokesperson enabled her to become a leading advocate against poverty and in favor of equal rights for folks in Chicago.

She maintained her job until her death in 1923, at age 89.

This was a remarkable woman... and she has just been ERASED by political correctness.

Don’t let an anti-America agenda erase our history. Every precious soul should be revered for their every contribution to our society. We are America.

Since 1946, Uncle Ben's products have carried the image of an elderly African-American man dressed in a bow tie, which is said to have been based on a Chicago maître d'hôtel named Frank Brown.

 

 

 

According to Mars, Uncle Ben was an African-American rice grower known for the quality of his rice. Gordon L. Harwell, an entrepreneur who had supplied rice to the armed forces in World War II, chose the name Uncle Ben's as a means to expand his marketing efforts to the general public.[

I can't imagine what would happen if we started deleting other black leaders from history 

Martin Luther King Jr 

Medgar Evers

Rosa Parks

Michael Jordan 

Michael Jackson 

Kobe Bryant 

Barack Obama  

Operah Winfrey and the list goes on and on and on
