masterrig 1 #26 August 21, 2015 normissUnfamiliar with the term house negro I guess. Either way, that's what Aunt Jemima IS. I'd think it would be easy to see why it's offensive. I think Flip Wilson may be the only black person that found humor in that. I'm familiar with the term. I had friends who had parents who hired black women as cleaning ladies who did house chores. They paid good, for the times and whenever I was around, I thought they were treated good and spoken highly of after they went home. I've learned, over the years that people can twist and turn anything to suit their 'needs'. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
normiss 798 #27 August 21, 2015 We had an occasional part time house negro mammy when I was a kid. Maybe I saw something from another perspective. A drunk step dad calling my mom a nigger lover probably didn't help either. I saw the US Air Force attitude towards black people in the 60's-70's. I saw the southern US attitude towards black people in the 60's-70's. I saw plenty. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
