Alright, it is 1916 . . . wait a minute . . . it's 2016, and this is still happening! This is a testament that there is still racism in this world! Also, it shows that we will do anything to sell something. Think about it. If this commercial was not so controversial, then it wouldn't get the publicity that it is currently getting. Some people say that there is no such thing as "Bad publicity". But, on the other hand, is it right to defile a race in order to sell a product? If you need to do something as drastic as this in order to sell your product, then your product must be really bad. It should be able to sell itself without the need to do something so vile. The spokesman for the company that made this commercial had said, "We meant nothing but to promote the product, and we had never thought about the issue of racism." What . . . in . . . the . . . World! You are telling me that your firm, who is probably well-educated and has a lot of lawyers to protect you from lawsuits, didn't see that this could come across as racist!
This needs to change because we are in the 21st century where we shouldn't be making prejudices based on the color of your skin. This will not be achieved until people are more open to diversity. I know diversity might be scary because it means we will need to work with people that are different than us. However, we can have diversity if we are united by some common core values. We must be united in our beliefs of democracy, respect, equality, and other important freedoms.Well, this is what's going on in the world. See ya next time.
