Stereotypical heavy set southern black woman
Ebonics used in slogan “lub dat chicken from Popeyes”

That black woman is going to be out of a job soon, and she won't be able to blame the white man.

I tell my wife all the time that I don’t trust the Popeyes out on the west coast. I need old black ladies in the back frying up my 3 piece Spicey, not a bunch of Central Americans that don’t speak English much less Ebonics..... sheeesh

Apparently Uncle Ben was a well-liked Maitre D that also grew fine rice so the founders named the company after him.

How is that racist?

I’m not positive but I don’t believe the women on the commercial was ever a slave or is impersonating a slave

The people here seem to do fine with it and they're not black.

Why are people trying to make the comparison between a minstrel show character and the Popeye's lady?

They don’t have an official statement prepared in response to this, but if you’ll pull forward they’ll run one out as soon as it’s ready.
