Racist advertisement

What I read

         I have never know how to make a blog so this is a new thing for me. After class, I read H&M stores in South Africa trashed by protesters after 'racist' ad from the guardian. I think it is interesting because the situation like this heppens again and again like they never learn from the past.

What it says

         The angry protesters trashed H&M stores in Johannesburg, South Africa. After the H&M company's website posted a photo of a black boy wearing a green hoodie with the message "coolest monkey in the jungle" on his chest.

My response 

           So many times we heard about protesters agaist the big company because of racist advertisement and this time it happens with H&M in South Africa. The meaning of word "monkey"  in Thai is playful or energetic but around the world it is not good meaning.  Back in the history, "monkey" used to call black people who were sold to be slaves. The masters treated them with disrespect and without human rights that made a  big wound in social until now. 
           I think this advertisement was a mistake by production team because they did not concern about sensitive content like this. So sad, many people thought a racist word is a joke but they never known how much the victims suffer from their behavior and how they get through. 
           By the way, I do not agree with what the protesters did. You can tell the world what you were displeased but you must not respond with violence. It will not make anything better and you have to get the result in anyway. What should we do? We should care people around us at least show small kindnesses without bias no matter what they are and where they are from.
