I'm not sure it's technically a logo - but they did Mrs. Buttersworths dirty. And Uncle ben. And Aunt Jemima... there's almost no black representation in my food isle any more. Those bastards.

Well they had to because society wanted the black community to stop being targeted by police. So naturally the best course of action was going after the logos and mascots /s

To be fair, the companies using those logos did the people who's likeness they represent a terrible disservice, if you look into the origins.
