Dove Regrets Soap Ad Showing Black Woman Turning Into White Woman
Huffington Post ^ | October 9, 2017 | Rebecca Shapiro

Dove has removed a Facebook ad that sparked outrage over the weekend for showcasing its body wash alongside a black woman who was shown pulling off her brown T-shirt to reveal a white woman wearing an ivory T-shirt.

Screenshots of the ad went viral on social media after makeup artist and model Naomi Leann Blake posted them to her Facebook page on Friday.

Isn’t that what blacks want anyways - to be White?

Black males shunning their “sistas” and marrying White women says they don’t want their kids to be Black anymore.

I remember a Playboy cartoon from fifty years ago in which the AJAX White Knight turns a cotton patch darkie lily white.

You DO remember the STRONGER THAN DIRT Ajax White Knight don’t you?

Stronger than dirt!

Stronger than dirt!

Was it racist when Michael Jackson did it in the 1990s?

But it’s OK for a boy to pretend he’s a girl.

It would take a hell of a lot more than just a shirt.

We’re talking transgender surgery and a 55 gallon drum
each of Febreeze and Magic Depilatory.

The white woman turned into an Asian. No one talks about that.

I just went out and bought a case of Dove.

You might want to reconsider. Dove also has a commercial featuring a transgender mom.

Yes, that was not clear at all in the original hysteria.
