Black Woman Cast As Herpes

GAP ad: This was nothing compared to what came right before it

How about the role of herpes played by a Black woman?

The diseased white woman of privilege, Mara Davi, is the only named performer and the only one with a speaking role! The strong Black woman (playing the role of the herpes sore) is vanquished and whiteie girl gets to look tough.  IT HAS BEEN RUNNING SINCE 2013!



It is positively bizarre how blind to racism Americans still are in 2016.  For example, this Pantene ad that has been running since 2015:

The white woman of privilege is fully clothed, while the Black woman (Eden Michael) is scantily wrapped in animal skins, dressed like a Las Vegas sex worker.  At 0:11 the white woman of privilege (Klara Vrtalova) drags the woman of Color all the way across the screen!  "Get over here slave girl! Smile like you like it, if you know what's good for you!"
