5:02Now PlayingA table in a Joe’s Crab Shack featured the lynching of a black man in Texas, with a speech bubble saying “All I said was I don’t like the gumbo.” A couple noticed how racially inappropriate it was and complained. Ana Kasparian, Ben Mankiewicz (What The Flick?!), Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show), and Kenny Hamilton, hosts of The Young Turks discuss.

“ROSEVILLE, Minn. - Joe's Crab Shack is under fire for using a photo of a black man's execution as table decor.
According to the Minneapolis NAACP, Tyrone Williams and Chauntyll Allen were preparing to dine at Joe's Crab Shack in Roseville on Wednesday night when they noticed a photo embedded inside the table.
It appeared to show a large group of white people watching a public execution of at least one black person. On the bottom of the picture, it reads: "Hanging at Groesbeck, Texas, on April 12th, 1895." At the top, the caption reads, "All I said was that I didn't like the gumbo."
