It's a depiction of a black person who is successful, hard-working and also friendly, warm and civil... to whites. And apparently, that's racist.

NOTE: This author described himself: In my own work as a historic interpreter. So he interprets history not based on facts but on feeeeeeeellllings and his political agenda.

That author is sadly uninformed. He depicted Nancy Green aka Aunt Jemima as a domestic employee her whole life when in reality she was one of the first black millionaires who spoke around the country about the misfortunes of black people and how they could get ahead like she did.

I never understood the attraction of victimhood on the Left.

Maybe the author and others of the same mindset should watch Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House. The black cook saves the family at the end of the film! But now I suppose it will be banned because the woman was employed by whites.

Pretty sure the film would be revitalizing as a Netflix series if she burned the house down with the whites in it.

What is the new drum beat...don't let the truth get in the way of the facts?

Victim hood has been very profitable for some getting special breaks, but still they cry for reparations while Portland smolders.
