“Easy-peasy. Use your photoshop-fu to change this to a white chick wondering “Will there be white folks there?”, and change the name to WhiteAtlas. Then do a jpeg of them side by side, with a caption underneath reading:
“IS IT RACIST YET?!!?” (comment left at IOTW)
From SadHill via IronyCurtain:
Black Atlas And American Airlines Offer ‘Unique’ Program For The African-American Traveler
Black Atlas and American Airlines proudly offer ‘Your Passport To The Black Experience‘.
No. I’m not kidding. That’s their tagline, and this text was lifted directly off the Black Atlas site:
‘No attitude. No cover charge. No Hassle. Join today and see what Black Atlas Travel Expert-at-Large Nelson George and millions of others have discovered—the AAdvantage® program makes traveling even better.’
American Airlines links directly to BlackAtlas: HERE
And American Airlines has this to say about the elite joint venture:
‘American Airlines will launch a first-of-its-kind social networking site, BlackAtlas.com SM, which combines the best features of a travel site with the power of social networking to create a dynamic online community for travelers to share experiences unique to the black community. We at American Airlines see Black Atlas as an important connector, enabling an online community of travelers to share information about their favorite places to travel,African-American and Black culture, food, music, literature, history and events across the globe, said Roger Frizzell, American’s Vice President – Corporate Communications and Advertising.’
Good to know American Airlines doesn’t discriminate. WhiteAtlas must still be in beta.
On the ‘About BlackAtlas‘ page (note the American Airline eagle beside the BlackAtlas name) we find the ‘AA’ logo, an acronym casually placed, as if to suggest ‘African-American’. Oh, never mind. It’s a ‘perspective’ thing you just wouldn’t understand.
Take it from here IronyCurtain:
(iOwnTheWorld) I don’t know when American Airlines started dabbling in Black Separatism, and I have to admit when we first looked at this ad here at iOTW we thought it might be a parody. A little bit of research reveals what appears to be an officially sanctioned American Airlines site called BlackAtlas.com that caters to those who…um…want to travel without the boot of “the man” on their neck…or something, I’m not really sure.
I watched a little video with the sites host, Nelson George, which consisted of him going to Alaska to basically look for black people and point them out in cars or on the streets of Fairbanks. Sort of a Travelogue With Beautiful Scenery For The Racially Obsessed. But I kept thinking about the American Airlines headline, “Are there black folks there?” It’s stated very casually, assuming all the readers are nodding in agreement. What happened to the left’s prime directive of diversity? Let me get this straight, you want to travel to different places, but you don’t want to see different people when you get there.
Much more: HERE
We’ll wrap this up with a press release from American Airlines:
(AA) The company’s commitment to African Americans in the United States and the Black community worldwide is a long-term commitment that encompasses employees, customers, the community, and African American-owned businesses. American’s efforts include a specialty sales team, the African Amercian employee Resource Group, support for important community organizations at a national and local level and commitment to doing business with African Americans through its Diversified Supplier Program.
AA has been an active partner in the African American community for many years. We support organizations that are pillars of the community, such as the NAACP and UNCF. The company also has BlackAtlas.com an online community especially for people who appreciate black culture.

Just a thought ,Will those Black gentlemen
be allowed to bring their white wives with them on this all black fly away vacation?
Having spent my adolescence in the “Golden Age of Television”, my mind is racing (pun not intended) with ideas that spoof those wholesome and inviting American Airlines commercials of my youth.
1. “We’re American Airlines — something RACIST in the air.”
2. “American Airlines — we love to SEGREGATE, and it shows.”
Or, let’s just fast-forward to modern times.
1. “un-American Airlines — YO, you got a PROBLEM wit dat??”
2. “When you become bored with terrifying the population of Manhattan with a flyover of a fighter-jet escorting Air Force One, and you just gotta get to your next golf vacation, who ‘ya gonna call? That’s right, and not white, American Airlines.”
What will they come up with next? Vacation destinations that are “guaranteed White-free”??!!
Diversity apparently has played out as a mean of organizing vacations — the New Racism is in.
Look at Eric Holder testifying in a hearing that he plans to enforce the laws if he thinks the victims suffered as much as “his people” did during the Civil Rights Movement. Has anyone heard one gov’t official or elected office holder call for this racist’s resignation?
Gee,I guess AA has become Segregation Airlines. Why don’t they support a “White Atlas” wondering if there will be White people there–oh, I forget, that would be racist but not if it is black. How about the Hispanics, or Asians–sounds like a racist airline.
You can bet your life and that of your children that if AA – a publicly traded corporation, BTW – had created a “WhiteAtlas”, there’d be no end to the shit storm and then some from every vestige of the darling negro community with all the usual suspects. Congress would hold a special session. Heads would roll at AA. The shit storm would go on and on for decades.
May I strongly suggest that a shit storm indeed descend upon Dallas-Fort Worth where AA are HQ’d. Contact these unconscionable bastards. Contact your local and national media. Turn the heat up so high on this as to make the sun pale by comparison. Don’t just sit here with your thumb in your mouth. Speak out against this sh_t………………….

Why has American Airlines (a publicly traded corporation) not demonstrated any “consideration” to one of the most unappreciated ethnic groups……………..
None other than Armenian Albino Hairlip Lesbians? Why?
Is there no respect? Obviously not.
