Racist Chinese advert causes outcry! (video)

Racism is widespread problem in China, believe some local media

A Chinese advert for laundry detergent has been winning attention for all the wrong reasons, with at least one commentator describing it as “jaw-droppingly racist.”
The commercial, for the Qiaobi detergent brand, begins with a woman loading her washing machine. A black man in paint-splattered clothes appears, who then wolf-whistles and winks at the woman.
She beckons him over, then pushes him into the machine – and he emerges, to the woman’s delight, as a Chinese man in clean clothes. According to Shanghaiist, the advert reflects widespread attitudes in China: “As any foreigner who has ever lived in China can attest, attitudes regarding race and skin color are often quite different here from back home. Still even with prior experience, sometimes this country can leave you completely and utterly dumbfounded.
