"Offensive" Black Memorabilia...

O.K., after having TWO listings of VINTAGE Black Americana TAKEN DOWN... Any idea WHAT items might be 'Non-Offensive' enough to be listed in this ACTIVE Category Choice  ?

"Offensive" Black Memorabilia...

I recently had 2 listings removed as being "offensive". I also had the term "Black Americana" in the title. Isn't that what it's called?!?!? I was absolutely seething with frustration. I listed them again after removing the "offensive" terms: Black Americana and Jemima.  This PC **bleep** has gotten way out of hand! I can understand some terms such as "Mammy" or "Aunt Jemima".  Good luck!

"Offensive" Black Memorabilia...

I have sold some bk americana in the last few months but they were not offensive but RPPC of real people or just historic. They ones I had listed that could have been taken as offensive were taken down. All listed on the same day with black Americana in title.  Black Americana by itself will not get a listing booted ,look a little deeper and see if what you are listing  would make you uncomfortable if someone of color was standing in front of you and you showed them the item
