H&M Apologizes For Using Black Child Model To Sell ‘Coolest Monkey’ Hoodie

H&M caught themselves in a firestorm after their online store showed a black child modeling a hooded sweatshirt that says, “Coolest Monkey In The Jungle.”

The company removed the offensive ad after being blasted on social media.  The hoodie is still being sold online.

H&M spokesperson Anna Eriksson released this statement:

“This image has now been removed from all H&M channels and we apologize to anyone this may have offended.”
