Well would you look at these Africans cooning for chicken.

i always wondered why..

watermelon too.....
teased black people for it....but it turns out to be a healthy hydration option...now these pink toes making teas and smoothies and face scrubs out of it.

same with chinese apples.....or pomegranates.

Watermelon was one of the main crop blacks were allowed to and grew for commerce purposes post civil war as free blacks....whites couldn’t handle it and started a smear campaign slowly turning into a negative stereotype

How much of a "thing" is the fried chicken stereotype outside of the U.S? This is an international commercial and probably shouldn't be judged by American standards.

Also, nothing is worse than this:

If it wasn't that much of a 'thing' it would have been a white woman rolling down the street for chicken

I'm not really sure how I should respond to that since it makes no sense.

I've read it a couple times and it's still stupid.

The commercial is from South Africa, a majority black African nation and is clearly aimed at black Africans. Why would they use a white woman or any white person for that purpose. Also, as many have said, the commercial is spoofing something that happened at the World Cup. How exactly would they have accomplished that with a white woman? Lastly, how does an African country not using a white person in a commercial prove that a certain stereotype exists in that country?

You said it's a bad way to introduce the country to the world, but you're making that comment as someone familiar with the stereotype. If the majority of the world isn't really all that familiar with or doesn't put much stock in the stereotype, the commercial is just benign silliness.

Damn Shame

The most ate meat around the world by all races is somehow a bad thing with black ppl

For real though. Then Chinese got like 10 different ways to cook them shits. It's usually just fried, grilled, or baked with us.

Letting white ppl dictate our feelings.

Like Dave Chappell said. “Who is these ppl that don’t like chicken and watermelon”
