Racism or Resist Forgetting

[edit]

"The great unresolved question about the drink is whether its name represents a genuine commemoration or if it derives from a veiled form of racism." - I wonder if some of the experts on etymology have compared the situation where each young person ordering a hot chocolate with a Rum shot is reminded of Patrice Lumumba and how he ended to the situation when the name of the drink would be a clean made-up word. --Gunnar (talk) 08:38, 29 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
