Fresh over at Crunk Disorderly [1] has asked the question : Do you think this Sony ad is racist?
My answer?
Absolutely. This is as racist as it can be. There is a huge difference between the obvious denigration of the black kid and the wet-nurse ad from Benetton, published more about 20 years ago :
I never found this ad to be racist. At all.
Discuss.
