Original Note:

The conception behind the removal of the mascots in question was due to a collaborative effort between various social justice groups and democratic-funded academia. https://www.today.com/food/aunt-jemima-remove-image-packaging-rename-brand-t184441 https://www.forbes.com/sites/lisettevoytko/2020/06/17/uncle-bens-brand-will-evolve-following-aunt-jemimas-removal/?sh=25c1e77a408d https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/17/us/landolakes-logo-change-trnd/index.html
