Is this racist?

[ABikerSailor]

Well, here in Amarillo, there is a new restaurant opening up, and it's causing a bit of a stir here in town. The local evening news just reported that a white lawyer named Jesse Quackenbush has opened up a new restaurant that serves fancy bean dishes, burritos and coffee, and has named it "The Big Beaner". He says that it's not racist, and that it is a humorous way to advertise the food that they serve.

Unfortunately for him, Amarillo has a large Hispanic population, and one of the racial slurs used against Mexicans is to call them "beaners", a reference to the fact that their diet includes beans as one of their main foods.

So, I already know what some people's opinions are about this place, I've posted a link that a DJ here wrote. Unfortunately, the local news doesn't have this up on their website yet, so when I can get a news story, I will post that link as well.

Is Amarillo's New Restaurant Derogatory To Mexican-Americans?

Being a Mexican-American I have been the victim of racial slurs. Racial bias is all around us and we should not promote it or even accept it.

I believe one should be able to be a dumbass if they so wish. We'll see if he gets enough consumers to stay in business.

 

[Sunni Man]

I don't think the name will hurt the restaurant's business. Because the local mexican people aren't going eat their daily intake of beans at a place ran by white people no matter what they name it. ...

[TNHarley]

It goes along with the restaurants menu.
I think its silly to say its racist.
Just flat out calling hispanics "beaners" isnt racist either. They eat a lot of beans

 

[occupied]

It's just a stupid stunt for free publicity.

The constant questions, accusations and pondering about racism is the best proof that diversity doesn't work - and will not ever work.

You’ll likely get those who will engage in semantics sophistry and argue that ‘Hispanic’ is not a race, but an ethnic group, and the restaurant’s name is therefore not ‘racist.’

Such nonsense aside, the name is clearly offensive, bigoted, and hateful.

Some black people should open up a mexican restaurant and name it Nacho Momma ...

Yep, just a TAD bit racist. But it IS his restaurant, and if he doesn't do good business BECAUSE of his racism, it's ALL on HIS racist ass.

I think Sunni Man is right, they're going to the taqueria.
I think it's a poor choice for a name and will probably fail, even if the food is good.
If it succeeds, it's because yuppies and hipsters go there.

'Beaner" IS a racist term to describe those of Mexican heritage.

 

[night_son]

Yeah, and while we're at it let's change Cracker Barrel's name too. As stated above it's mostly white radical leftist ideologues who take mock offense and virtue signal. This is America. If I want to open a place and call it 'Greaser's' I sure as hell shall. I'd tell you how fucking soul taken pathetic you priests of political correctness are but you already know. It's only you who must deal with the reflections of your souls everyday.

 

[JoeMoma]

I can see how it could be offensive. On the other hand, to someone that isn't very thin skinned it can simply be funny. It seems like lots of people are just looking at things to be offended over.

Years ago there was a construction company here in south Mexifornia with the name "White Boy Construction Services"...everybody I knew hired them...I'm sure many thought the name was racist.

I lived and worked in El Paso, Texas for a couple of years a long time ago. The place has a large mexican population. They called white people gringoes and we called them beaners. Everyone used the terms. It wasn't a big deal. ...

That's better than calling the company Black Boy Construction. Many Blacks are offended when called "Boy".
