Steakhouse Slur
A lone activist is leading a crusade to change the name of a 55-year-old steakhouse near Philadelphia because she says it is demeaning to Asians, reports the News Gleaner.
Chink's Steaks, a local landmark in Wissinoming, Pa., is under attack from Susannah Park, of West Philadelphia, who says that regardless of its origins the name is a slur and must be changed.
The owner of Chink’s, Joseph Groh, is baffled. He says the name was passed down to him by the founder Samuel "Chink" Sherman, who died in 1997.
"Why now?" Groh wondered. "We have been here for 50 years."
