Oh oops, the "woke" Quaker Oats people in their rush to kiss ass, forgot to check it out. According to Rush today, Aunt Jemima was the stage name of an actual woman born into slavery, who had considerable success as a professional on stage story teller. Successful at that and also as a cook, she came to be highly regarded personally by the Charles Walker family of Chicago, Quaker Oats fortune, and Nancy Green, AKA, Aunt Jemima was signed to a lengthy contract with his company. Financially successful she went on to become an active organizer in poverty programs for people in Chicago. Never let the facts get in the way of a good "woke" story.
