“In photos of the now-deleted costume, sold as “Kids’ Glows under Blacklight Circus Clown,” a young Black boy modeled the outfit, which featured a black-and-orange printed bodysuit and hood with an exaggerated smile and mini top hat. The model’s pose, in which he stands with one leg and arm raised in a waving gesture, particularly sparked criticism for its affiliation with Jim Crow-era negative depictions of Black people, according to The Cut.” People.
Had Target chosen a young White boy maybe they wouldn’t have gotten the same kind of blowback! It reminds me of the Bud Light ad featuring a transgender “woman”, maybe had they used a real woman they wouldn’t have tanked the brand. Also had Cracker Barrel left either the Barrel or the Red Neck in their re-brand the lady CEO may still be working their! The first rule in salesmanship is to never talk about politics or religion!
And that is all I’m going to say about that!
