Uncle Ben’s Rice will change their name to Ben’s Original™, as well as eliminate the image on their packaging to build more inclusive branding. Their shift signals an aim to create a more inclusive world.

 

Ben was actually a successful rice farmer who was known for the quality of his rice during 1940’s era.Thank God the serious issues are getting handled by big companies. No one I know ever saw a thriving black farmer as anything like a "slave," so you’re wiping out a much loved successful black man. Stop making this about the PC/Woke movement shoved down our throats every other day.

Why does this seem dumb to me?  How does Walmart prevent people from stealing the deliveries?  What about the weather?  Job displacement for humans? What happens when people start shooting them down for fun.  There are so many variables to this project that it makes you wonder why this needs to be done in the first place.  It also seems that this is how our culture is headed for more surveillance.

“The Daily Show” host Trevor Noah is arguing gender reveal parties are “very outdated” and shouldn’t be celebrated until a child can choose his or her gender identity.

“The problem with gender reveal parties is that parents don’t know the gender until the child grows up and decides,” so says Trevor Noah. 

Hmmm.  This dude wants to tell parents that they should let their kids decide what gender they want to be?  With this type of thinking, then shouldn’t we also make race a child’s choice?  Parents should let children decide if they are black or white, or Asian or Mexican, when they FEEL it is right.  If gender is on a “choice” now, as he and others like to argue, then shouldn’t race and skin color be a choice?  Time to decolonize all words and meaning!!!
