McD's History of Racist Franchising

Posted by: St. Martin De Porres Church ( USA ) on March 01, 19100 at 13:14:25:

A lawsuit in which McDonald's settled with the NAACP and franchiser Charles Griffis of Los Angeles was settled out of court and the records sealed. Mr. Griffis contended that he had not been allowed to buy an outlet in an all white area although he already owned several in mixed areas. http://www.mcspotlight.org http://www.naacp.org

This happened in the mid 80's. But today fast food is heavily
marketed to the black community which has more than its share of
hypertension, heart disease, cancer, kidney disease, and food poisoning
from fast food. If tobacco companies are paying reparations
to blacks to whom they marketed more heavily, so should fast food
chains which promote flesh consumption.
