    Someone else posted that they didn’t consider getting rid of Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben as big wins.

    Most of the changes are performative and not material. imho.

      They were big wins the same way getting rid of the Redskins was a big win for Native Americans. It’s not about the specific instance. It’s about what growing up in a world that tolerates that kind of portraying of ethnicity does to young minds.
