Nigger Head Oysters

Original Brand: Nigger Head Oysters

Jet Magazine reported on 18 August 1955 in an article entitled, "Name change of the week." Under repeated pressure brought by the NAACP, the Aughinbaugh Canning Company of Biloxi, Mississippi, changed the name of its oysters. The old name: "Nigger Head Brand." The new name : "Negro Head Brand."

Newly branded "Negro Head Oysters"

  34. This is useful history for the Washington Redskins name today, where white people say "nobody I know is offended." I am sure the same justification was made to keep the original name for the oysters.

    1. You're viewing it through a lens of current language. At the time, it wasn't necessarily "offensive". "nigger", "negro", "colored", "African American", each one in turn becoming first the new "politically correct" acceptable term, then changed by the Ministry of Truth to unacceptable to censor ideas, not the word. Then "Black", and now back to "colored people" again... oops, I mean "people of color", as if there's any meaningful difference other than it being much less specific and thus less useful in many contexts, unless you want to lump black people in with every other color except, I suppose, whites.

      The purpose is always to silence free speech and critical thinking, to control the narrative, otherwise we would simply stick with one acceptable, descriptive word.
