User ID: 72788982 United States 06/06/2020 12:58 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A California restaurant SAMBO'S is changing its name to avoid promoting a racial slur. Quoting: Goneviral Sixty-three years ago, a pancake house opened in California that spawned a nationwide restaurant chain. Sambo's in Santa Barbara will remain in business but under a new, undetermined name, owners say on Facebook. The term "Sambo" is a longstanding racial slur with roots going back to an 1899 book about a dark-skinned south Indian boy. The name became an epithet against African Americans.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 72505079 United States 06/06/2020 05:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Wow that’s bullshit, sambos was never a racist name, it was a family name. A very close family member was legal council for the company and the family was very close to us and my neighbor growing up, super lovely people. I hate to see people cave to bullshit sheepish social pressure. Fuck these people already trying to erase history that has zero to do with race. |
