amazing that people aren't upset that quaker oats needed to be pressured into changing an image that is an obvious racial stereotype.

well to be fair, white people haven't gone through hundreds of years of slavery and oppression, but yeah it is getting pretty silly, especially if this change is being pushed solely by "offended" white people lol...

I think it was 2004 where there was a poll about the redskins nickname and the results showed that white people were much more offended by it than indigenoous people
