    IT IS RIDICULOUS TO GO BACK WARDS, INSTEAD OF LOOKING FORWARD, STOP THIS CRAZINESS, PEOPLE, BLACKS ARE ALSO RACIST, WHY DON’T TEY LOOK BACK FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE OR SAID.

    I’m black, and I’m embarrassed for the white Americans who created this.

    Is there no mercy? Is there no forgiveness? Does it ever end?

    Mammy was universally loved and respected. In many ways she was the glue that held the household together during very trying times. I don’t see how it’s racist to keep use her image in a non-demeaning way.
