A cafe owner is hitting back at critics and community members who reportedly called the police on him for selling racist dolls.
Sources from local media outlets were quick to speak about how the behavior was just not okay and many deemed the product to be controversial for obvious reasons. But he failed to agree.
The news comes as his business continues to flourish and people just aren’t happy with the reports because they feel such a man is a negative influence on society and promoting racism shouldn’t be accepted in today’s modern day and age.
The dolls in question are very controversial to speak about. They are the famous golliwogs which have always been considered a questionable ordeal for obvious reasons.
While many purchase them as souvenirs, others feel the design and makeup of the product are questionable as a whole. And that’s why calls for the end of the good are always running at an all-time high.
But one manager at the Old Manor Cafe in Norfolk does not see eye to eye with his critics. He feels if that were the case, people would stop making a purchase from him.
“My clients love them. People are just jealous of my success and I am sick and tired of explaining to them that it’s nothing like what they’re thinking. This product is an ancient tradition and people buy and gift it to others as a memorable keepsake”- he added.
The news comes after the cafe was reported to the cops in the past year. And one customer slammed his decision of selling the dolls as morally acceptable.
While the owner says he gets complaints every once in a while, he’s okay to explain to people that his intentions are nothing like the speculation regarding the gollies. What do think?
