I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

H&M was accused of racism over and advert showing a black kid wearing a hoodie with the slogan 'coolest monkey in the jungle'.

There is racism, I agree, but not on H&M side, but in the sick minds making an association between the word 'monkey' and the fact the kid is black, instead of just seeing a kid wearing a hoodie.

Reminds me of when I was a kid and my sister said monsters came into the house through my closet at night. If you are looking for monsters in the shadows, you are sure to find them. All that’s here is a kid who probably has a savings account and a really adorable hoodie.

@JustNik Very well put. If you are looking for monsters you will find them.
