University of Florida students who said they support changing the name “Black Friday” had a change of heart when informed that the shopping holiday’s name has nothing to do with race.
In a video released Wednesday by Campus Reform, students at the Gainesville campus were asked by reporter Ophelie Jacobson whether they supported renaming “Black Friday,” citing an opinion article that argued it discriminates against Black people.
The article goes on to state the following:
The origin “Black Friday” is heavily debated, but the History Channel says it ultimately stems from 1960s Philadelphia, where police used the term to negatively describe the frenzied shopping that ensued on the day after Thanksgiving, just before the Army-Navy football game kicked off that Saturday every year. In the 1980s, retailers reportedly reinvented the term to mean that stores would turn a profit on the day after Thanksgiving, and go from red to black, after operating at a loss for the entire year.
As Campus Reform interviewed the college students, it was clear they had no idea what the term meant.
One student said, “Honestly I’m down to rename that. I don’t like the name Black Friday. I never really have since I was small. Whenever I would go to stores, everything would be jammed packed and I would see workers, kind of, it sounds wrong, but they would lean more toward the lighter skinned people. Like, they would assist them.”
WATCH their responses, as they learned what the term really means:

Actually I learned the term long before the 80’s. I was born in ’61 and remember asking when I was a child why it was called that, and was told about ledgers going from red to black because people started their Christmas shopping the day after Thanksgiving.
Who gives a good shit at this point. As pig Hillary would say what difference does it make
