Offensive Use of a Black Man's Face on Advertisement

Career & Work

My complaint is that the advertisement you use on the internet is totally offensive to those African Americans, who are upstanding law-abiding, civic-minded citizens. You have picked a black man with dreadlocks, who looks unkempt, whereas most African American men do not look like that. I have three brothers and several nephews. They do not wear their pants hanging below their behinds, they are clean-shaven, and well-groomed in their appearance.

I really do wish you would change that image because what it says to us is that ALL black men with dreads have a criminal background and that is just not so!

I am sure that you are aware that there are many white American men, who wear expensive suits and are well-groomed, that are some of the worst criminals in the world. Take Bernie Madoff, for instance!
