If they were gonna serve soul food, why not serve sweet tea or even just soda with the meal?  They should have known better than watermelon.

I read this story....

I didn't see the issue with the menu (the ribs, mac n cheese, etc. all sounded good tbh) until I got to the kool-aid and watermelon flavored water. :udontlookok:

People just need to put some time aside to develop common sense.

Exactly.

Why is watermelon a negative association? It's fckn delicious. :uhh:

After slaves were emancipated, a lot of southern blacks sold homegrown watermelons and or her fruits and made good money doing so. This, of course, became a running joke amongst white people and after years of seeing it minstrel shows and movies, watermelon became synonymous with black people.

:receipts:
Thank you. Smh

Tacos! Italian food! it?s not the same, Bow. read up on the history



Genesis

Watch Ryan Coogler?s interview about going to Africa.

He said this key point:

?I was in Africa, and I mentioned To Africans that America makes fun of Black people for liking Watermelon?.

?The African responded by saying, why Would they make fun of you for that? Watermelon is nutrious and good for your body, thats nothing to be ashamed of?

Enough said.

Let white people eat their bland ass food lol. My Granny couldnt cook for shit.

i saw that, but then I remember movies like Soul Plane, Friday, PhatGirlz

I think as a result of normalizing those stereotypes for comedy. They have in fact become just as common as the abbreviated version of the N-Word

Now there?s this huge disparity about what?s offensive and what?s not imo
I think it really depends on the setting.

If I were at a family cookout and there was kool-aid and watermelon juice on the table I wouldn't be up in arms about it.

But if I'm at my job and they throw me a birthday party with grape flavored koolaid ...telling me they knew I'd love it when they never saw me drinking it before, it's a different ballgame now.
ddfffgggggg bingo
