H&M Starts 2018 Off With A Racist Mistake
H&M has officially made its first racist mistake of the new year.
2018 just started and the clothing giant has already found a way to get behind the ball for the year.
According to TMZ, in a recent ad, H&M showed an African-American child model wearing a hoodie that read, “Coolest Monkey In The Jungle”.

Since then, H&M has yanked the ad off the website and has issued an apology,
“We sincerely apologize for offending people with this image……This image has been removed from all online channels….”
Was this just a simple mistake or should H&M be punished for this?
