You may not have too much time left to....
Eat Aunt Jemima pancakes with Aunt Jemima syrup. Lord knows, the image of Aunt Jemima that was re-done years ago, looks too much like...Oprah Winfrey? Maya Angelou? Some other nice looking black lady? You'd think getting your face on a cereal box...be it Wheaties or Pancake Batter...would be an achievement and a sign of respect. NOPE. Not in this PC (pretty crazy) world.
Jemima's surrendered. The BAND song could be pulled any day now.
This RARE clip, by the way, is from some "ruin our fun" company that won't offer complete free downloads in perfect quality. They actually want artists to be paid (and not be, ya know, SLAVES.)
Now what was that John Lennon song that nobody is allowed to mention by name anymore? "Copyright Owner is the --- something or other --- of the world?" No, that can't be right. It CAN'T be.
Is it "Woman is the...." well, that's what some people seem to think of Aunt Jemima? Or is Jemima a name demeaning and terrible and...Ian Dury's daughter should change it to something else? Who knows. As Lily Tomlin said, "No matter how cynical you are, you can't keep up." Not with the daily news on what offends people, who should be boycotted or canceled, or get ominous "R.I.P." trending Tweets.
OH, PS, don't listen to Aunt Jemima's kin, y'all. Just enjoy your self-righteous, ignorant witch-hunting know-nothing paranoia. It worked like McCarthyism, Salem Massachusetts, The Final Solution and the Spanish Inquisition.
