Jemima character to market the Pearl Milling Company pancake mix in late 1889 after viewing a minstrel show. However, Rutt and
Underwood were unable to make the project work, so they sold their company to the Randolph Truett Davis Milling Company in St. Joseph,
Missouri in 1890.The R. T. Davis Milling Company hired former slave Nancy Green as a spokesperson for the Aunt Jemima pancake mix in
1890.Nancy Green was born in Montgomery County, Kentucky, and played the Jemima character from 1890 until her death on August 30,
1923. As Jemima, Green operated a pancake-cooking display at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois, USA in 1893, appearing
beside the "world's largest flour barrel." From this point on, marketing materials for the line of products centered around the stereotypical
mammy archetype, including the Aunt Jemima marketing slogan first used at the World Fair, "I'se in Town, Honey".Anna Julia Cooper used
the World's Columbian Exposition as an opportunity to address how young African American women, were being exploited by white men. She
predicted the appeal of Aunt Jemima and the southern domestic ideal and went on to describe the north's fascination with southern
traditions as part of America’ s “unwritten history”.Progressive African American Women post emancipation, saw Aunt Jemima’ s image as a
setback that inspired a regression in race relations.Just as the formula for the mix has changed several times over the years, so has the Aunt
Jemima image been modified several times. In her most recent 1989 make-over, as she reached her 100th anniversary, the 1968 image was
updated, with her kerchief removed to reveal a natural hairdo and pearl earrings. The logo much more resembled a modern homemaker than
previous designs and carried far fewer racial connotations. This new look remains with the products to this day.
