Chick-fil-A CEO Tells White Americans to Shine Black People's Shoes as a Show of Humility
2020-06-19
[RedState] Move over, kneeling — now there’s something meatier.

Or, at least, more involved.

On Sunday, something unusual took place.

During a discussion on race among Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy, Pastor Louie Giglio, and Christian rapper Lecrae at Atlanta’s Passion City Church, Dan encouraged white people to repent of their racism.

As reported by The Buck Sexton Show, the son of chicken-chain founder S. Truett Cathy signaled a call to non-melanated America:

"We as caucasians, until we’re willing to just pick up the baton and fight for our black, African-American brothers and sisters — which they are as one human race — we’re shameful. We’re just adding to it."

Ask the mayor of Olympia how it worked out for her.

#18  Just in time for my changeover to fixed income. That'll be another $10+ that I won't be spending.

#17  Quite telling of Mr. Cathy.

Do go on, what are other traditional black chores, other than shoe shining and eating chicken of course, and about the expected footwear of those you would associate with - light loafers perhaps?

#16  I don't even owe humility. Neither does anyone else.

#15  There is a difference between humility and submission.

Also, is it cultural appropriation for people of African heritage to wear Western-style shoes? Asking for a friend.

#14  No. Also, Hell No.

#13  I'm so busy I barely have time to shine my own shoes. I think I'll pass on this suggestion, and pass on Chick-Fil-A as well. Asshats.

#3  The old truism that the wealth created by the first generation is all squandered by the third generation is right on schedule for the Cathys.
