Jackson's complaint also accuses Deen of racism and enabling Hiers' behavior. According to the complaint, Deen and other managers at her companies ignored Jackson's attempts to discuss Hiers' behavior. As evidence that Deen "holds such racist views herself," the complaint details an incident that occurred when Jackson was in charge of "food and serving arrangements" at Hier's wedding in 2007. The complaint includes a comment Deen allegedly made when asked by Jackson what type of uniforms the servers should wear at the wedding.

"Well what I would really like is a bunch of little niggers to wear long-sleeve white shirts, black shorts and black bow ties, you know in the Shirley Temple days, they used to tap dance around," the lawsuit claims Deen said. "Now that would be a true southern wedding, wouldn't it? But we can't do that because the media would be on me about that."

In Defense of Paula Deen: How a Righteous Call for Blood Turned into Good Old Bullying | Observer

http://observer.com/2013/06/in-defense-of-paula-deen-how-a-righteous-call-for-blood-turned-into-good-old-bullying/

By the end of this week, when the racist glimmer dust has settled and
the fat has coagulated, Paula Deen will be a ruined woman. She'll be
the Hester Prynne of fried food, the Tess d'Urbervilles of
cholesterol. She's already been forsaken by Target, Novo Nordisk,
Walmart, Caesar's Palace and millions of non-racist fans. She wept on
Today and couldn't even get her subject and verbs to agree. "I is what
I is," she said tearfully, channeling both George Gershwin and Popeye.
