true story, i had searched for the word "cracker" to see where the discussion of that word started itt, and then i had that ctrf+f still open on my browser when i clicked over to a tab where i'd been looking at an old blog entry, and learned that i'd referred to Stargate as "Norwegian crackers"

PARIS, July 6 (Reuters) - Female French footballers are still precluded from wearing headscarves even though world soccer's rule-makers lifted the ban on the hijab this week.The French Football Federation (FFF) said in a statement on Friday that it had to "respect the constitutional and legal principles of secularism which prevail in our country and which feature in our statutes."In these circumstances (the FFF) does not authorise female players to wear headscarves."

Is this racist? Its this great new spot that opened up in Philly with great DJs and a great chef doing the food, etc, and they have a night called Jamaican Soul where they play roots, reggae, and Jamaican soul, and they also just started doing nightly food specials and that night it was $10 for really quality jerk chicken, fries, and fried plantains (and also a craft beer, whoo Philly)
Got into an argument with my boyf who says the name Jamaican Soul is racist, and that the whole thing fetishistic, and the idea of having a food special that correlates culturally w a DJ night is way problematic and wrong. I disagreed bcz from my (somewhat limited) understanding of Jamaican food/music, it seemed fairly authentic and not caricaturey (e.g. like tropical cocktails and Bob Marley and paper Jamaican flags everywhere and fake dreads) and they weren't billing it as like !!JAMAICA NIGHT!!, and it seems equally problematic to say "you cannot play music and serve food w the same cultural influence w/o it being racist"

No it's not, it's just a dumb name. They do tons of different things (Todd Terry, Alan Braxe, The Juan Maclean, etc)

true story, my dad (among other ventures) opened a nightclub in the late 90s, there was a weekly r&b / hip-hop night and he actually thought it was a good idea to sell fried chicken and cornbread on that night. which was definitely racist (sorry, dad).
BUT re: your question, I don't think attempted authenticity is prophylactic against racism, i can see how it might play as a kind of ethnic tourism. i don't think the food / music pairing is not necessarily offensive but maybe promoting it as an 'authentic' 'Jamaican Soul' experience is maybe pandering to a sense of exoticism that's a little icky -- especially if there are no jamaicans involved (are there?)

Not sure why calling a night of reggae Jamaican Soul is racist. Jamaican Soul is a musical reference, no? At worst, the food special is maybe a bit tacky.
