Ariana Grande is Italian. But who knows, maybe Italians are considered "minorities" again for the purposes of ethnic tribalism, and who's more Latin than Italians?
Ahh, the Spanish, Hispanics etc. Ever go to Northern Italy?
It is sad. Specifically, those little Brown people rely on those bananas for their livelihoods. It is probably the only source of income besides drugs they can make. Chiquita has done an excellent job marketing and selling them around the world.
I agree.
And for me they are the best bananas ….less bruises
I'd be fine with replacing the logo with a good looking, topless woman with big b**bs, but that MAY be seen as Sexist instead of Racist. So we're back to square one.
I was thinking more along the lines of a good looking topless man with a big "banana".
This is from back when Latin Americans were ethnic white people.
Yep. Desi Arnaz was white and, along with Lucy, as popular as anyone on TV in the '50s. Today, in our more enlightened time, he would be considered a Person of Color, a "Hispanic", representing an oppressed minority group in need of special consideration.
"Miss Chiquita has been criticized for perpetuating stereotypes of Latin Americans as primitive and Latina women as hypersexual.
The Food Empowerment Project, a sustainability non-profit, has described Miss Chiquita as “another way in which non-white bodies have been objectified and exploited.”
When the hell will the majority of people wake up and end this madness?
Frickin logos are just that, logos and ad gimmicks to get attention and recognition.
I guess from this period of insanity on, everything will be labeled dull and gray!
George Orwell's 1984 was correct!
Just off by 36 years!
