Here is the email I received January 14:

Remember when Black Lives Matter started to have some success getting all of America to see how unfairly Black Americans are treated in this country and the importance of us all saying Black Lives Matter until Black lives start to be treated as though they do matter? Remember how Republicans, seeing the success BLM was having in moving America towards greater equality for Black people, in many ways the first real success since the time of Dr. King, remember how Republicans did all they could to derail that success by trying to drown out BLM’s message with shouts of all lives matter, and blue lives matter, and lying about the leaders of BLM being Marxists and Communists?

Remember after George Floyd’s murder the anger and righteous outrage that swept across America? Remember how Black Lives Matter stepped in and redirected that anger into peaceful protests that millions of Americans from across all walks of life participated in, amassing a hundred million human-hours of peaceful protest? Remember how Republicans, going against a mountain of evidence to the contrary, once again lied and said BLM wasn’t a peaceful movement but instead terrorists inciting violence throughout the country and then raced out to buy a crapload of guns because maybe they were finally going to get their chance to shoot a Black person? What a bunch of racists.

So many great things about our spices and seasonings. One of those great things is that pretty much every one of them, by virtue of where they are grown, who they are picked by, or by the cultures of the foods they ultimately go on to season, cheeses off racists. And where normally cheesing off racists is something we throw in for free with the purchase of any of our spices, in honor of the life of Dr. King, this extended weekend we are throwing in an extra cheesing off of an up-to-$12.95 value 1/2-cup jar free with any $10 purchase.

This Dr. King Memorial Weekend we are also giving away 10 little but powerful BLM stickers with any purchase. And two of our very best blends, our regularly $3.95 Galena Street and $5.29 Mural of Flavor, are only $2 each with the entirety of those $2 being split between the national Black Lives Matter organization and Milwaukee’s own BLOC that’s doing an outstanding job pushing back against the decades of racism this community has faced. Thanks for helping support good people.

No coupons or codes are needed for any of these offers. Each is automatic for everyone. On penzeys.com, whether you are looking to get your order shipped or looking to do touchless pickup in one of our stores, once you have an additional $10 in spending your most expensive of all your half-cup jars up to $12.95 in value will automatically be free. It’s easy!

And I get it. If you are a Republican voter you are now cheesed off. You were promised that there would never be any accountability for your support of the party of open “textbook” racism. Sorry, but for the betterment of all Americans, you included, we’ve decided to end that rule. And I really don’t care what your race is or how many of your friends “happen to be” whatever. None of that excuses you.

If you’re a part of a party that does everything it can to make it harder for Black people to vote, gerrymanders the value of minority votes down into a small fraction of the value of white votes in state houses and in the US House of Representatives, and are willing to vote for candidates of the party that nominated a man for president who explained why he was launching his campaign by saying: “Mexicans are rapists and murderers,” the Racist label is one you will deservingly wear every day you stand with them. Get used to it, or maybe instead, become a better person. The choice is yours. We will be here rooting for you to Choose Love.
You have to be kidding me!!!!

Kill it with fire.

But it's racist to say the protests weren't peaceful.

The CEO has an extremely unhealthy level of hate and needs to get out of whatever echo chamber he's fallen into. This is like intervention level mental imo.

When will the medical community finally realize that woke IS a real mental disease so that people like this can get the help they need?

Oh, wait, the CDC and the AMA are already woke with the disease.

Btw, Penzeys went from 67 stores nationally to 53. They blamed it on COVID. With so many restaurants shuttered home cooking with all the spices required to make it enjoyable sales should have exploded.
exactly. and i've never heard of this company until this idiot decided to go psycho-SJW 'racist!!'-shrieker.

he sounds like he needs to be sitting somewhere in a quiet padded room tightly wrapped in a long white shirt.

LOL... this is something Mark Belling has brought up on his show from time to time. It's similar to how a chunk of people still won't buy New Glarius beers after they supported the Scott Walker recall.

Vote with your wallets.. it's often the only thing that does work.

Go woke, go broke. This is a truth.

The only exception is the big shill business of D.I.E. (Diversity Inclusion Equity) training programs - lot's of companies offer consulting and training to turn your organization or company fully woke.

The problem is that once woke, that organization or company dies (hence D.I.E.) as it is eaten from within like a cancer as its time, resources, money, energy are turned inward to keep the wokeness pure until it's dead.

You could literally falsify nearly every sentence.

In fact it could be a good republican campaign ad showing what dems think and what the actual truth is.
