Just in time before the end of the summer, Wu Tang Clan super producer RZA is collaborating with Good Humor Ice Cream company to circumvent the problematic ice cream jingle, “Turkey in the Straw” due to it’s racist roots. This jingle has rang throughout our communities for decades, perpuating the subtle roots of negativity and hatred towards people of color that exists in this country.
RZA shared that “…we come to find out that it has racist roots” and thus he has created a significant change effort to bring equality and betterment to the painful jingle that has rang out in our community for decades. The messages that are manifested into the youth create the foundation for their beliefs system. As our country is fighting hard to eradicate injustice in the future, RZA is using his talents to support the change our society needs and is pushing for.
