Forever 21 Under Fire
Fashion store Forever 21 is apologizing for using a white model to sell a Black panther inspired sweater. The brand tweeted this picture of a male model with blue eyes and blonde hair wearing a sweater that reads, “Wakanda Forever.”
Forever 21 has since deleted the tweet and removed the images of the model from their website. But, many fans are still outraged at the company’s choice of using a white model to sell a sweater that honors Marvel’s first African-American Superhero.
What do you guys think about this?
