Menu At Atlanta Ikea Angers Black Employees

Juneteenth menu at Atlanta Ikea angers Black employees

A menu that the manager of an Ikea store in Atlanta says was meant to honor Juneteenth instead angered Black employees who called it insensitive. Many didn't show up for work on Saturday – Juneteenth – and some even thought about quitting.

The manager is apologizing.

Employees who requested anonymity due to fear of repercussions showed CBS Atlanta affiliate WGCL-TV an email sent Friday that said the special menu for customers and employees was one way to "honor the perseverance of Black Americans and acknowledge the progress yet to be made."

LOL, it's like it was me who designed that MENU! :D



The menu included items such as fried chicken, watermelon, mac and cheese and collard greens together with Purple Drank beverage.

They should sack anyone who complained and replace them with employees who aren’t winey over sensitive cunts

This is as offensive as offering Japanese sushi or Irish corned beef, cabbage and potatoes.

A month ago I was at the beach and a large black family (or group of 12 African American people) were eating watermelon while they were in the ocean.

Haha maybe they didn’t want sand to get in their watermelon so went in the sea to eat. We haven’t got many darkies round here but it’s been hot recently and a few weeks back on a Friday we decided to fuck work off and go to Blyth beach and there was a congregation of about 30 of them playing loud music and having a fire but to be fair they bothered nobody it’s just strange seeing so many at once round here

I believe they were offended because there was no Hennessy on the menu. Understandable.

Watermelon, Collard Greens, Mac & Cheese, and Fried Chicken were included on a menu? Dear Lord.  ::)


What would’ve been funny if the restaurant served only Thanksgiving dinners. Turkey w/stuffing, rolls w/butter, pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce

This is horrifying. >:( Can that Atlanta IKEA be demolished and replaced with a BLM-approved, taxpayer-funded memorial.  :'(

What did they expect? Croque monsieur, jellied eels and haggis?
