NOT TYPICAL
The Red Cross poster that portrays being “Cool” as white people following the rules and African Americans as doing the opposite is not only racist but stupid. Betraying African American’s as being uncool is like betraying an Apple as rotten for although their are some Apples that might fit such a description we don’t assume most are. In other words African American’s have had to suffer from many stereotypes that are hurtful but being cool is not one of them. How a marketing team came up with this concept is behind me but watching too much Urkel from Full House must have played a role.
