On the recommendation of Judge Walker, [8] she was hired by the R.T. Davis Milling Company in St. Joseph, Missouri, to represent " Aunt Jemima", an advertising character named after a song from a minstrel show. They were looking for a Mammy archetype to promote their product. [9] From slavery through the Jim Crow era, the mammy image served the political, social, and economic interests of mainstream white America. Despite its popularity, there has never been a time when the Aunt Jemima character has not been considered racist. According to Smith, Andrew F. in The Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America , the famous Mammy came under increasing scrutiny in the 1950s and 1960s during the Civil Rights Movement.Aunt Jemima’s pancake mix began in 1889 when two speculators, Chris Rutt and Charles Underwood, bought a flour mill. Together they developed the idea of a self-rising flour that only needed water. Initially, it was called ‘Self-Rising Pancake Flour’. Rutt was inspired to rename the mix after attending a minstrel show, featuring “Aunt Jemima.” Rutt decided to use the name and the image of Aunt Jemima to promote his new pancake mix. However, Rutt and Underwood were unable to make the product a success and in 1890 they sold the business to the Davis Milling Company. The Davis Milling Company developed an advertising plan to use a real person to portray Aunt Jemima. The woman they found was Nancy Green. In 2014 two descendants of Harrington, whose likeness was used for Aunt Jemima, sued the brand, claiming they were owed royalties. The case was dismissed in 2015, after Quaker said Aunt Jemima was never meant to be a real person.
