H&M

I'm sure we all have heard about the incident that happened with H&M and the colored child who was seen photographed in a hoodie stating, "Coolest monkey in the jungle." which resulted in a lot of damages caused to H&M stores all over. This incident was talked about all over social media sites,the news, even celebrities that signed with the store removed themselves. People went around destroying H&M stores,but while people all over the world reacted to it negatively the little boys mother tells them to "get over it." The little boys mother showed no kind of concern for what was happening, she took it as just another modeling opportunity. Not knowing that her comments would only make things worse, she was targeted by others and forced to move her family into another home for their safety. My question is, do you think h&m was wrong for putting the little boy in that specific hoodie? or because the mother has no problem with it it's not such a big deal anymore?

  1. For the first question, I think this was a mistake that H&M overlooked, I do not understand why a company would reject potential buyers. For the second question, I think the mother was just trying to calm things down but failed .
