This doesn’t even call for a long discussion.
The Black girl washes the black off her like some Mammy scrub soap ad from the 1940s or 50s.
If Dove/Unilever products does not have the sense enough to see why MILLIONS of Black people would find this Dove soap ad offensive, even if the white chick put her precious Black skin back on, then they have lost sight of their smarts and their common sense.
Question is, how long will the Black girl survive with her under-derm only showing?
Is she really wanting to have her skin peel, flake, and itch early in life without her God-given correctly-colored skin?
Does she want to end up with varicose veins, with legs and arms that look like the spotted princess?
Does she want to age early and end up with skin blemishes and diseases and skin disorders that darker-skinned people usually aren’t subject to?
That’s the real question.
Why would she want to wash the Black off and end up looking like she’s 60 when she’s only 25?
I mean, seriously, white people have to kill Black people and steal their body parts and organs and flesh in order to have that God-given fountain of youth that we are BORN with in our DNA.
Why would she want to get rid of our God-given blessing for something tainted and out of the natural order of things in life?
If that sounds like some racist shit … well, NOW you know how that kind of thing feels.
Deal with it.
NEVER get out of your “feelings” about racism. It’s their responsibility to get out of their overt AND covert racism and yours to ditch them dry until they do.
ALL Unilever products are off my shelves and out my shopping cart. If you don’t like the idea of empowering white supremacy with your purchasing dollars, you will do the same. If not, keep expecting it from them. It gets worse.
Congratulations, Dove. You’ve earned yourselves a spot in the Jim Crow Museum, FOREVER.
Black America, if you don’t think it’s a REAL problem, congratulations. You’ve been Bamboozled. Yet again. You are the reason it does not end and never will.
Don’t get mad when they come through your ‘hood tossing bullets up your asses, because if #BlackLivesMattered, they would matter to YOU first.
Don’t ask ‘them’ to do for you what you REFUSE to do for yourselves by supporting and empowering white supremacy with your money.
