Pepsi Ad
Wednesday, April 5, 2017
I have absolutely no idea why everyone thinks the Pepsi commercial that got yanked today is referring to Black Lives Matter. There is an extremely diverse crowd there, clearly including as many races and backgrounds they could think of. The signs are all about love and peace. To me, it read very "Anti-Trump Rally" (which is something we can all get behind, yes?).
Either way, I agree there is a big issue with the rich white model as the heroine. "Let me take a few minutes out of my very privileged life to march in your little protest, although I am completely clueless what your issue is." Just... yuck.
Have a non-white child approach the president with a Pepsi. Now that would be thought-provoking imagery for Pepsi's "global message of unity, peace and understanding."
