Butter slinger Paula Deen, who admitted (under oath) to past use of the N-word and wishing to compel servers to emulate slaves to achieve a genuine “Southern plantation-style wedding,” has been shit-canned by the Food Network, despite issuing dueling apology videos today.
There’s nothing surprising about a Southerner of Deen’s era having used the N-word in the past (she claims she no longer uses it), and it should surprise exactly no one that some white people still glorify plantation culture. The only surprising thing is that Deen owned up to it.
This seems like a good place to share a link from commenter Muddy.
