"16 Dishes Not Allowed at Any Black Cookout This Summer; You know better than to show up with potato salad with raisins.
6: Vegan Meats: Don't you come near the grill with that mess. You want to get on Unc's bad side? Try your luck."
What's up with this mess?? π£οΈ
It's extra weird because as of 2015, 8% of black Americans were vegeterian or vegan which is a much higher rate than the general population which was only around 3%.
So if anything, plant based alternatives would be more well received, I'd think.
Hmm that's interesting, any idea on why there's such a big difference?
I'm not black and don't really know, so it'd probably be presumptuous to say with any certainty.
I know that several black vegan feminist authors have tied it in with intersectionalism, and a rejection of systems of oppression in general, but as a white dude without a lot of knowledge on the matter, it's probably not my place to speculate about that sort of thing.
This feels racist.
yes, but technically it's colorist
Balck isn't a colour.
Are you implying transparents aren't valid?
I'm not implying anything, what I said is a full formed and self-contained sentence.
Alright. Just making sure we didn't skip any puns.
I don't appreciate the implication that I'm being any less then serious.
I mean, there's potato salad with olive oil instead of mayo? Also, just bring some Beyond Sausages or something, it's not like they're impossible to grill.
Facsimile corpse
