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.

I can see Michelle being swapped out for Ed Asner. Harvey Weinstein.
Obunga may go for that, Reggie may be getting old by now and some nice Jewish boy from Hollyweird might be the spark he needs in his love life.

Just more triggering for the perpetually aggrieved class.
If whitey would just commit suicide instead of genocide, the world would be all bettah..../s

This sort of thing was OK when Michael Jackson did it in his Black or White video, https://youtu.be/pTFE8cirkdQ
Skip to 5:26 to see it. No outcry of racism then.
