To paraphrase a chick from FB:
"I don't care about her using the N word. It's what they do. At least she came clean about it. I want her to come clean about her grandmama's recipes. She knows good and damn well her grandmama's recipes came from the help. That old white bitch didn't know shit about no Red Velvet cake, until Fannie Mae made that shit for her and her kids."

Bruh, the way people grew up in the South & the way peeps grew up in the North were VASTLY different, She grew up in a state (Georgia) that OPENLY practiced institutionalized racism, unless you grow up in it you have NO IDEA of the mindset of the people who do, it's why I pointed out earlier in this thread that to this day in her heart of hearts Paula Deen still feels that she did NOTHING wrong, and that's because that's just "how things were", the bitch's grandfather OWNED SLAVES (35 of 'em) for Christ's sake!
Sure she knows what she did was wrong, but I"m telling ya'll she doesn't feel that way.
Since Georgia was a Jim Crow state, it's a guarantee that she went to segregated schools growing up, the "N-word" was simply how she spoke amongst her peers and her family, no different than how you would speak amongst your peoples, in her mind calling a Black person the "N-word" is akin to saying "that guy", and understand that A LOT of Whites (mostly from the South) feel that way, that they are not being racist when using the word, while most of the ones from the North know and understand that they are being racist when they do.
But to US and anyone with half a brain, BOTH situations are one & the same.
Racist.
Lincoln freed the slaves with pushing thru the passage of the 13th Amendment, but his assassination allowed things in the South to remain status quo, Blacks remained slaves with new names like "indentured servant" & "prisoner", especially with the advent of Jim Crow laws, Blacks still acted and essentially remained slaves, sadly most did not realize this, which is why situations like Emmett Till took place, being from the North he had no idea how Blacks in the South cow-towed and remained "prisoners" in their own minds, he felt that he could talk to a White woman the same as any other person, his friends and the peeps in his own family who he was visiting pointed out to him that this was not so, they had already been thoroughly brainwashed, just like these Black people today supporting this devil.
I'm done, rant over!

if grandpa killed himself when he lost his workers, paula should at least honor his memory by killing herself for losing the food network gig.
It's interesting how growing up in a different era gets a pass in certain situations. All of these black women that are supporting her and using that as an excuse, I wonder how they'd feel if an older white man took their bodies, because he grew up in an era where that was accepted? Or how would all of these women feel if their husbands were fucking around on them, because in his era, that was accepted? Why are sexual harassment and giving women lower pay not accepted in the workplace from bosses who are from a different era? Why the fuck do people have a problem with wrong, when it comes to certain shit and not others?
You're correct, it's silly, as I just pointed out in my last post they've been brainwashed and sadly, don't even realize it!
Because when someone likes you, you are never wrong in their eyes.
I always liked her, I'll eat whatever she puts in front of my face.

SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) — Watching Paula Deen’s cooking show was a weekend ritual for Marilynne Wilson, who says she’s furious at the Food Network for dumping the comfort-food queen after she acknowledged using racial slurs in the past.
“I was shocked. I thought she’d get a fair trial,” Wilson, a nurse from Jacksonville, Fla., said Saturday after stopping to buy souvenirs at the gift shop Deen owns next to her Savannah restaurant. “I think the Food Network jumped the gun.”
A day after announcing that it’s dropping Deen from its roster of celebrity cooks, the cable network was served heaping portions of Southern fried outrage by her fans.
Angry messages piled up Saturday on the network’s Facebook page, with many Deen fans threating to change the channel for good. “So good-bye Food Network,” one viewer wrote. “I hope you fold like an accordion!!!”
The decision to drop Deen, whose daytime shows have been a Food Network fixture since 2002, came two days after disclosure of a recent court deposition in which Deen was asked under oath if she had ever used the N-word. “Yes, of course,” 66-year-old Deen said, though she added, “It’s been a very long time.”
Deen and her brother are being sued by a former manager of their restaurant who says she was harassed and worked in an environment rife with innuendo and racial slurs.
Wilson’s friend Debbie Brown said the Food Network is “basically convicting” Deen. “They should have waited until it goes to court,” she said.
Deen issued a videotaped apology Friday in asking fans and critics alike for forgiveness. It had been posted online for about an hour when the Food Network released a terse statement that it “will not renew Paula Deen’s contract when it expires at the end of this month.” The network refused to comment further.
A representative for Deen did not immediately return a phone call and email message Saturday.
Meanwhile, Deen’s critics were making themselves heard online. On Friday night, (hash)PaulaDeenTVShows became a top trending topic on Twitter, with postings that satirized familiar titles. Earlier in the week, they tweeted satirical names for recipes using (hash)PaulasBestDishes.
Deen’s legal deposition was conducted last month as part of the 2012 lawsuit filed by Lisa Jackson, who worked at Uncle Bubba’s Seafood and Oyster House. The lawsuit drew scant attention from news outlets until Deen was questioned under oath and her remarks became available to the public in a transcript.
On Saturday, the controversy didn’t keep customers from The Lady & Sons, the restaurant owned by Deen and her sons in Savannah’s downtown historic district.
“If you look at her restaurant here, I don’t think it’s going to hurt her too much,” said Felipe Alexander, an Atlanta trucking company owner, as he waited on the sidewalk for his lunchtime reservation. He also said he didn’t blame the Food Network for cutting Deen loose.
“If the network didn’t want to be associated with somebody who used that word, it has the right to do that,” Alexander said.
The fallout may not end with Food Network. At least two other companies that do business with Deen say they’re keeping a close eye on the controversy. Las Vegas-based Caesars Entertainment Corporation, which has Deen’s restaurants in some of its casinos, said Friday that it “will continue to monitor the situation.” Publisher Ballantine, which has a new Deen book scheduled to roll out this fall, used similar words.
The heat over Deen’s remarks hasn’t been quite as intense in Savannah, where her success over the past decade has helped raise the coastal Georgia city’s profile as a tourist magnet.
The head of Visit Savannah, the city’s tourism bureau, weighed in on Deen’s plight Saturday on Twitter.
“OK, I’ll do it: what (at)Paula-Deen did was wrong,” Joe Marinelli, Visit Savannah’s president, tweeted. “But she’s part of our (at)Savannah family and I’m here to support her.”

if you think these muhfuckas didn't know back then and don't know now that they are wrong, you got it fucked up.
they just don't care. you are writing these muhfuckas a pass and they would gladly cosign you all the while knowing that they know exactly what the fuck is up.
don't be so naive b.
Well, we can go ahead and add Bill Maher to our shit list too

Be careful with these white liberals.
^^
looks like a scene straight outta idiocracy
i had no idea how much of a pure bigoted bitch she is
Those producers knew yet they aren't getting any heat over this. New racism is covert and behind the scenes.
That is precisely why we cannot win as a people, negroes sympathizing for mofos that would chop off their manhood, gut your newborn from your wife's womb, or put your head in a noose. I hate sambo, cooning as ninjas just as much as racist cacs.
True, sometimes they look at us as pets but white conservatives are no better because they look at us as something less than human too.
man, don't believe all that shit.
most restaurant employees enter thru the back door except maybe the hostess and waitress crew.
and i've eaten at her lady and sons joint in savannah. the food was OK, but i've had better for the price. and there were black people eating there, working there, etc. and smiling like this.
paula's getting beat-up in the media and rightfully so, but the ONLY way to show your anger is to NOT visit her places, NOT buy her wal-mart cookware, etc.
and FTR, when i ate there, it was on the company tab.
lol@ bill maher
dedication to all the people who are revealing themselves.
NOTED

it's ugly, but it's real.That is precisely why we cannot win as a people, negroes sympathizing for mofos that would chop off their manhood, gut your newborn from your wife's womb, or put your head in a noose. I hate sambo, cooning as ninjas just as much as racist cacs.
i don't understand the line of thought. i ain't trying to kumbaya wit muhfuckas who look down on me. especially when that very mindset is usually a highly accurate indicator that i am the higher lifeform.
these bitches spit in your face and you wanna wipe it off and turn around and tell us "it's okay brothas, they don't realize what they doing". so they smart enough to take over the world via racist strategy and ideology...but dumb enough to not realize how it works. BULLSHIT.
maaaaaaaaaaaaaaan FUCK that. these muhfuckas got PLENTY sense.
It is a reflex reaction that has been handed down for generations. We need to kick them to the curb along with the racist cacs of the world.
EXACTLY where did you read that I gave her or anyone else a pass?!?
WE are saying the same thing, she doesn't give a fuck, you feel that she's dissing us and laughing in our faces, I'M trying to break down the fact that we don't even rate that high in her thinking, as far as she's concerned we could never, EVER be her or any other White person's equal, she's ambivalent towards us, so deeply ingrained racist towards us that we simply don't register, this is one of the main reasons why the US as a whole CANNOT move forward on the racism front until ALL of the Paula Deen's are dead & buried, they inherently believe that they are better than us, saying that "they know exactly what the fuck is up!" says that her type are thinking about us, I'm telling you that they aren't, to them we are too far beneath them to warrant a single thought
Her apology was aimed @ her sponsors and was a necessary PR move on her part, but she still feels that she did no wrong.
And that to me is the worst kind of racist of them all, just like a child molester she can never be "cured" of her racism, it's this that makes ANY Black person who supports this heffa a fool of the highest order, they are, as I said in my earlier post, brainwashed & don't even know it.
That is precisely why we cannot win as a people, negroes sympathizing for mofos that would chop off their manhood, gut your newborn from your wife's womb, or put your head in a noose. I hate sambo, cooning as ninjas just as much as racist cacs.
DON'T misinterpret what I said!
Fixed!
THIS is what I'm saying in a nutshell, there is NO excuse for that behavior, PERIOD!!!
The same way we don't think about what our pets are thinking, these people DON'T CARE about what we're thinking, to them we are simply too low on an evolutionary scale to warrant this.
It looks like Paula Deen has really dug herself a grave this time!
The Southern comfort food recipe Queen was fired from Food Network this past week after evidence was revealed in a deposition that she used racist slurs against black people.
Now, more evidence from her past is coming forward to show that she has used questionable and offensive phrases that imply her views on black people being "slaves".A new video from an interview with the NY Times has just been dug up, where she talks about her ancestors having had slaves back in the day.
She told the media outlet of one of her ancestors:
“Between the death of his son and losing all the workers, he went into his barn and shot himself because he couldn’t deal with those kind of changes,”
“Back then, black folk were such an integral part of our lives, they were like our family, and for that reason, we didn’t see ourselves as being prejudiced.”
Paula then calls over one of her black staff members, Hollis Johnson, and jokes about how he is hard to see against a dark backdrop.
She says of Hollis:
“We can’t see you in front of that dark board!”
Apparently some, viewers aren't too happy with the Food Network's decision to fire Paula, which is leading many of them to boycott the network.
Tons of fans have already made a Facebook page to boycott it, and some have even made some pretty shocking comments on the matter.
Some of the comments look like this:
Really thought?!
