Old Navy catching heat for interracial ad

[The God Poster]

I get people being upset. It's common to see all white family's in ads/commercials. But anytime a black person involved it has to be an interracial family. Shyts pathetic. They wanna try & get our money(I don't personally wear them) & keep the racist whites happy

When the comments look like they are from 1956 and not 2016

Is this ad stopping you from dating black women? no? so who cares what another couple does?

when was the last time you even went to the gap or old navy?

This. Last chick I dated was black. Chick before her was white. I support black folks above anything else though and am active in my community and have supported BLM movements in Cincinnati. Who gives a fukk about this basic shyt? We're not superior to anyone else and they aren't superior to us. Love yourself and love your people without hating others. Its not that hard

if theres a black man then they give him a white/light/or racially ambiguous wife..and when she is black they do the same for her husband. only 100% white couples are allowed to exist in ads.

Um I may have to back track. Just read this comment from somewhere and it got me like

It's 2016 in America....

... we all know that dude is dating the girl, an that kid is from her first marriage/out of wedlock with a different baby-daddy.



If anything, that ad is actually ultra-white supremacist: An irresponsible black man knocked up some chick, didn't commit to raising the child, probably is incarcerated... but there's the white man, carrying the responsibility of providing for families that aren't his.

Natural hair

More black women in general are wearing natural hair which means how it grows out of their head. Did you expect a purple weave?

Black women are the ones demanding to see themselves portrayed with non-black men.

For several decades, they've hosted panels, written books and produced television shows about the lack of "good" black men. Media and advertising agencies are just acting accordingly. Can you blame them for trying to capitalize on black women's desperation?

Ehh most black women want black men. Some get mad and date out for "revenge" but if they could get the type black men they wanted trust me they would be with him.

Wench is in. I seen it at the Shore Club Hotel on Miami yesterday. At the pool. Any black chick you saw was with a cac. It is what it is. Go to the Disney channel and you'll see what's in play.

A lot of people in Miami date interacially. Black women are actually the last to drop on that everyone else has been doing it. I have homies in Miami and they date every race.

Most educated black women are down with the swirl. Coincidentally, they're the ones who have the largest platforms to speak out.

No stop letting a loud minority cloud your vision. Most black women are still with us breh. Look at your family, friends how many black women YOU know that don't fukk with black men

Yeah basically they always want to show a black person with a white person. A united black family does nothing for white people they need to see themselves at all times.

Naw I'm ok with the ad but I understand why they are mad.

If this was a latina and an asian man no one would care at all. Seems like it's only controversial when it's black and white

 

[Deflatedhoopdreams]

Why be angry over an ad with paid actors who are probably in same race relationships anyway. youre wasting the precious moments of your life worried about the effect of an Old Navy ad

This. The race of people in Ads have never caught my attention EVER. Until I see a thread like this.

When I see an Ad I'm looking at how can I get the product cheap as possible. Not the race or relationship of the people in it.

Definitely. In America, the interracial dynamic mostly becomes a problem when its black/white, and that makes complete sense when you think about our history in this country. But we're in a day and age where an ad promoting clothes with an attractive interracial family shouldn't shock the masses.

 

[calixprynce]

Boy, yall gon be some mad old mon fukkers in about 30-40 years when half the population is swirled up

you must love this country . a real patriot

It's strange how when there's a black woman with a white man, it's such a big problem, but ads with white women and black men are seen as normal.

I've never seen other people get mad b/c of a black man with a white woman on an ad.

I haven't read this thread yet, probably won't read it, but I bet there are lots of guys agreeing with those comments, meanwhile there are plenty of pawg threads on here and other ads with black men with white women than almost never get hate from males. & there are threads on here saying how people shouldn't care about the race that someone else is dating, yet you all are bothered in this thead (I assume b/c I haven't read yet).

 

[Another Man]

I'm sorry but that trolling got me too

@Timeis$

You keep telling yourself that, if it makes you feel good.

It's pretty obvious that African American and other new work black women have a strong dislike for black men. Always have and always will.

Of course no one cares when minorities are paired off with each other (which they show very rarely).

if theres a black man then they give him a white/light/or racially ambiguous wife..and when she is black they do the same for her husband. only 100% white couples are allowed to exist in ads.

Black people exist in black ads for black shows.

Black women do have unkempt biracial hair unless the actress is portraying numammy then she's in dreads.

Asian women only exist as wives for white men.

Asian men don't exist at all..... Unless there's a white woman. Very rare. Unicorn rare.

But do Asians care?
