Several black communities throughout the Midwest are banding together with the support of a class action law firm in order to protest and boycott what they perceive to be KFC’s attitude towards black customers and/or those impacted by the recession. Among the items being protested is the use of black people dancing and promoting “finger-lickin’ chicken” in commercials for the company, as well as the debacle that was the grilled chicken giveaway as promoted on Oprah’s show.
