They done gentrified Shea Moisture; CEO Speaks Out

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

Yes, let's boycott a black owned company who could potentially give money and jobs back to the community because they didn't have "natural" women in the commercial. People don't see the big picture at all. Use the Trojan horse, make a lot more money, and you can do even more for your community and make better products.

I've heard people saying "but but they were making enough money!" Are you kidding me?

You mean one hair store?
A hair store the vast majority of Black women have never, and will never attend or buy from?
Its not a point, Tariq Nasheed is trying to find a balance between bashing Black women and selling his hotep foolery.

Black women's hair has very specific history regarding discrimination, as well as being used in anti-Blackness, especially in the US.
Historic discrimination against their hair continues in this country.
Cac.

This didn't answer the questions I posed, what more are women from different states who've never shopped at that specific store supposed to do about it?

The CEO just did an interview with The Breakfast Club:

Just read the comments. The apology didn't make it any better.

Why do some black men keep comparing themselves to black women? Do you really think that's a good look?

It really isn't...

Not seeing why dudes can't look at this from BW's pov.

"bu bu but women should have equal rights as a man" do yall want to be treated equally or nah?

The question is actually do you want to be seen as equal to other men, or do you find it more advantageous to have a competitive spirit towards women?

The follow up would be do you want to be a woman, or do you hate women?

 

[director_of_bands]

typical female spin...nothing but confusion in your post...you got it...

Neither Andis or Murrays are Black companies.

Breh, either you're a little retarded, or you simply lack the ability to engage in a point-based conversation.
The issue is a Black company, that rose in prominence entirely due to Black women who are underrepresented in advertising and hair care campaigns, is "broadening their horizons" and instead of keeping these Black women as the focus while branching out, they left many of them entirely out of recent advertising campaigns, alongside product changes that negatively affect Black women.
It sounds like you just want to whine about women having equal rights.
In sincerely hope you're not a Black man embarrassing yourself like this and you're just one of those cac trolls from Reddit.

So, it turns out this video people are flipping out over is a actually one of a series of videos that cover 20+ women?

Ok... non issue. Let these people make their money and KIM.

I've never used Shea moisture. I mix up my own stuff with the exception of a few things.

That's business 101..... You have a consumer base already established, then you use your advertising dollars to focus on the extending that customer base to a new demographic....... its sound business per se, but they fukked up by not realizing the emotional backlash this could potentially cause in this era of easily being offended.....
