I tried to list a pair of vintage Aunt Jemima salt shakers from my mom's collection. Now I'm a racist? Wow. I love Aunt Jemima, so did my mom. My Irish grandmother was the first person in her all white community to rent property to a black family, because she was compassionate and they needed a place to live. I attended YMCA summer camp in my youth and was the only white girl there, it didn't matter, we were just a bunch of kids having a blast and learning that race didn't matter. Growing up in the 1960's I remember staring at Aunt Jemima's friendly motherly face on the pancake mix box while helping my mom make breakfast in the kitchen. It was comforting. Ironically, I'm selling my mom's estate and using the money to help starving families in Uganda. That's in Africa BTW.
So, I don't appreciate being spanked without knowing what I did wrong. Hey EBAY, couldn't you be a little more detailed in the explanation and not just assume I'm a racist. There are a lot of other similar items out there that don't seem to be a problem.
Anyone know how we're suppose to sell these things?

·1 year agoLet's learn from the last 4 years. Don't let anyone make you feel ashamed of the color of your skin. Don't let anyone tell you that you need to do something or say something that goes against your beliefs. If someone wants to play the race card, don't play their games. In this day and age there should not be racism. If one person or a group of white people are racist, that doesn't mean every white person is racist. Slavery has ended and I don't believe there is a slave master left alive, so we own no one restitusition for what some dead people did to your ancestors. My family came to this great country from Sicily and was they were treated like trash because they were Sicilian. I'm not asking for restitution for that. It is in the past and we should not be looking back, but looking forward. Treat people the way that you want to be treated and remember God first. â¤ï¸ðŸ‡ºðŸ‡¸â¤ï¸
