This one is really angry saying, “let’s talk about the regressive, racist, downright offensive sana safinaz shoot. it’s 2018 & they think it’s okay to use black figures as accessories and exploit black culture as a means to sell overpriced lawn?”
There are those who want to boycott the brand saying, “Sana Safinaz is straight up trash. #Boycott There is no excuse in this day and age to be this ignorant, offensive and insensitive.”
Nabeha Latif wrote, ” Hey #SanaSafinaz, It’s not cool to use black slaves concept to promote your lawn. What were you thinking? This is culturally offensive.”
Heena Khaled said, “#SanaSafinaz using African culture as subservient props for a shoot is exactly why I’m not buying their lawn this time! This isn’t the first time this brand decided to appropriate a group of people who are often referred as disadvantaged #BoycottSanaSafinaz @sanasafinazoff”
Soha wrote, “Ah, the season of lawn is here. Brand overcharging for their bloody names – repetition of designs again and oh, let’s not ignore Sana Safinaz stooping to another level by depicting racism in their photoshoot. Creativity level? Z E R O.”
