    This is appalling and bias. I can't believe they did this. Where is 365 White, Hispanic, etc? Where is the diversity? Boycott them till they take the site down.

    me neither, but it is pretty funny. Way to sign your dignity over... turning to McDonalds to help celebrate your heritage and diversity.

    I don't think it's racist, but I think that the poet guy got paid a shitload.

    I love how white people step on everyone's rights and then cry racism like little bitches when they don't get a piece of everyone else's pie. We should build an island called "Redneckia" and send them all there. I think Australia could be bought for a song...

    Am I the only one who sees this as taking advantage of black people? I agree with both of you guys. This is a disgrace to all races. & I CAN see how it can be considered unequal by not having whites, hispanics, asians, etc. so that COULD be considered racist.

    HOWEVER, does that mean that we should all be taken advantage of equally? Uncool to all of us as people, I say. & racist, depending on how you look at it.

    Just don't fight, meh.

    Precisely... I'm surprised anyone needed a new reason to boycott them. The food is absolute shit, plain and simple, regardless of taste- it's fucking poison. The politics and ethics behind McDonalds are absolute shit, plain and simple, regardless of their attempts to come across as 'caring capitalists', they're scumbags concerned only with profit. Now jumping on the racial bandwagon, it's shit propaganda- they only care about black culture if you buy their fucking hamburgers.

    If you weren't already boycotting them then you're a bit dim anyway. Never eaten in one in my life and damn well never intend on doing so.

    I find being proud of something that takes no work to accomplish as ridiculous.

    I think it only creates division.

    We're people, simple as that.


    Might as well have a site for all the worlds cultures: Italian culture, Irish culture, Jewish culture, Ethiopian culture, Bulgarian culture, Inuit culture...

    Where does it end?

    What exactly is African American Culture, anyway... Africa comprises of multiple nations and each nation with its own culture and subcultures.

    There are a hell of a lot of other fucking reasons to boycott 'em... but sure, why not just this?

    sounds to me like the poet is a sellout... he wasn't taken advantage of.

    I kind of see the racism that's involved. What if there was a McDonald's 365White? And the website said:

    At McDonald's®, we believe that White culture and achievement should be celebrated 365 days a year — not just during White History Month. That's the idea behind 365White.com. It's a place where you can learn more about education, employment, career advancement and entrepreneurship opportunities for White Americans, and meet real people whose lives have been touched by McDonald's. Plus, you can also have a chance to win exciting once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. So make sure you visit often — you just might get inspired.

    Maybe, just maybe it is the Bush administration trying to get more African Americans to eat at McDonald's, just like they were pumping drugs into their neighborhoods to try to kill them off they are now going to try to raise their cholesterol so high they all have heart attacks...sound like a pretty good conspiracy theory to me anyway.

    Maybe McD's is a major part of African American heritage now. I mean entry level jobs, jobs that require little to no education ect. Seems if anything, a true proud "any race" person would rather not admit that a place that expoilted thier labor and lack of education is a good place. Oh well looks like another ad whore, toss money in thier face after they got fucked the hell out of and they will say anything.

    Yup it is pretty cold but I call it as I see it!
