I read that article this morning and was ALSO wondering WHY blacks would be ‘insulted and offended’ at a store offering fried chicken as a special during ‘black history’ month. I was raised in the south and feel fried chicken is NOT a racist food. Most white families enjoy fried chicken as a SOUTHERN specialty….and do NOT consider it a ‘black’ ethnic food! I thing blacks are WAY too sensitive to take offense at anything like FRIED CHICKEN, for heaven’s sake! They, as a race, would be far better served by being offended and upset by the crime statistics, unwed black teen mothers, third generation welfare, and absconding black fathers than with FRIED CHICKEN! Until they can wake up to the REAL WORLD, and make a decision to try and correct the REAL propblems that are keeping them down, black people will continue to be diverted by silly things like being offended by FRIED CHICKEN! I also am wondering….what foods might elicit the same feeling of insult among WHITE people? Can some black person please tell me what they feel would be appropriate?
