Ads from Dr. Miracle (http://drmiracles.com) have appeared in black magazines and are highly offensive. The same company also makes African Pride products. I see no African pride coming from this company.
Sign the petition at http://www.petitiononline.com/Drmir227/petition.html and use the company's Web site to send them an email. Here's a portion of the petiton:
In reference to the above website we find the advertisement of your products to be insulting, embarrassing and a mockery to Black women. Your advertisements represent buffonery, and distaste at best. If your company desires its products to be taken seriously by the African American community, it will behoove you to verse yourself in the many ways that African American women wear their hair. Your advertisement on your website does more to insult African American women than appreciate the diversity of their beauty.
Enough is enough.
