let me guess
it was probably white people offended on behalf of black people and the majority didn't give a chit. inb4 it was black people that made up the menu. fried chicken and collard greens are typical southern food. bets that the 20 employees probably ate the fried chicken before walking out "in protest". who tf doesn't like refreshing watermelon on a hot summer day? just lol. guess it's also racist to serve tacos on cinco de mayo as well.

They used to feed slaves watermelon, and they would make slaves drink water, and breathe air too. How racist of restaurants and businesses in general to have breathable air in their establishments.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

I chit you not 3 weeks later it was black alumni week at the college I went to, so there was a special section for black students and alumni of the school to tailgate before the football game. My brother calls me up excited as hell. "Bro! I wish you could be here! They've got Ciroc, Hennessy, fried chicken...blah, blah, blah." Basically a rundown of all of the things I told the marketing guy that would be a hit at his event! But since it was put on by the black alumni association noone batted an eye.

You can't tell me every single person from every part of the world wouldn't have enjoyed the fuk out of that. You could show up to anyone's house (esp in the South) on a Sunday evening and you'll find this exact menu.

I remember seeing a "Black History Month" promotion at a regional grocery store chain that basically advertised the same thing around 2000. Probably back then was actually a good idea, can't fly today though.

I don't understand how it's racist?
I mean Fried Chicken and Watermelon is a black Southern culture staple food, so how is it racist? Is it because black people eat it?
It be like a store serving Pasta and Pizza to celebrate an Italian holiday or some chit. Well, no fuk, it's what they're gonna serve because it's what we Italians literally Eat everyday, well Pasta for sure and Pizza probably at least once or twice a week.
The only people to complain are literally white liberal rich fuks.

This is where folks are confusing Racist versus Racial. There is nothing wrong with Racial, but everyone wants to be offended. Traditions within a racial subculture should be free to enjoy.

BRB, creating and offering things that you know people will enjoy is now offensive. Thats like if Bauer offered me a free hockey stick for hockey day in America and I get offended.
There is nothing wrong with catering to your demographic. Marketing 101
BRB they would have still been labeled racist for not offering a special menu "in support/celebration"

LOL at these pandering corporations, don't they realize they can't win.
The woke mob complains that they want representation and there's only 3 options.
1) If you don't give it to them you're a racist.
2) If you give it to them but it's based off of stereotypical things then you're a racist.
3) If you give it to them but it's not based off of stereotypical things then you're white washing it and you're a racist.
Just LOL at caring what they want or think in this lose lose lose situation.
