She raised over 3 million dollars for the Rockville, Illinois boys club. She did this at a time where Blacks nor women could vote. She was not a desperately poor actress struggling to make ends meet.

In reply to Love Over Hate. The chain photo was a artist's rendition of Aunt Jemima and what she stood for, sorry. As For Nancy Green, she made nothing off her role as spokesman, and still can be categorized in the offensive "token Negro" moniker that white led corporations used to sell more product under the false pretense that African Americans were equal opportunity buyers.

Love Over Hate:

The viral photograph claiming Aunt Jemima chained to a table is false. It is just a modern interpretation of an artist Sally Stockhold who took the picture in 2008 and named it “Aunt Jemima: I Laughed Because They Paid Me.” The picture is listed in a gallery titled “myselfportraits ode to icons and other absurdities.”

Just saw the ENTIRE picture of original Aunt Jemima human brand ambassador Nancy Green (from the 1st picture in this article). In the UNCROPPED picture, her leg is CHAINED to the TABLE. All this is revolting to me now.

It’s a scandalous shame that they did not pay any of those women who portrayed Aunt Jemima, but they continue to profit of off these women. Now you want to change the name and look of the package. How about paying the families of these women!

Her face in the article was beautiful. My mom has fed me these products over 30 years. My adoptive Portuguese mani in our mixed race family. I am impress with he work, warmth and accomplishment. I am understand there is a movement to clean up history. I love her just in the amazing life she had and in giving back to her community. I’m sad to see her go. No more politics in foot Food is love. I will discontinue all Quaker Oats and a Pepsi products. Shame on greedy corporations
