i didn't accuse them of being anything. quit looking for it. whether or not there is truth to the matter is irrelevant. i'm sure aunt jemima with a gun is a very real stereotype.

Right, the combination is not a really stereotype which is why it's hard to assume that it reflects much of anything at all. I imagine it was just sillyness.

But if you think about it, the addition a of a gun to Aunt Jemima "mammy" stereotype is kind of interesting. hum. . .

Haha, no Aunt Jemima with a gun, although somewhat funny sounding, is not a very real stereotype..........however, eating fried chicken, drinking 40s, and wearing baggy clothing is.

It was a short story about getting asked for money last night. I deleted it as to not start a riot.
