Well the ad shows a black woman removing her brown shirt and revealing a white woman. What . Backlash on social media was swift and the ad was pulled. Dove owned by union any lever they makes have 19 and ponds apologized saying, we missed the mark. But that apology was really a non apology. Many wondered how that ad could have made it through multiple layers receive view. I mean its 2017. How could a company be so tone deaf . Heres how. Lack of diversity. Weve come a long way but theres still a long way to go.

Kristen rodgers in the house now with us, kathy. Hey, kristen. Welcome. Its always sunny in philadelphia, kristen. Thats what im hearing. Also what im hearing a lot of mixed feelings about that hefty crack the sixers just gave to joel embiid. Some were not for it. Me im trusting the process. Why i thihihi joel embiid back on the court with the 76ers aft signing a rather hefty contract. Kristen rodgers shares why signing him to an extension is a good thing. Her commentary in 15 seconds much joel embiid was back on the court with the 76ers tonight. He put up 22 points and 15 minutes against brooklyn in long island. It was his first game back since hes been out with injury concerns. It was also his first game since he got paid. That fiveyear, 146. 5 million max contract extension funny how money seems to Heal Injuries overnight. Shelling out this contract embiid is gamble likely biggest one well see in the nba this year. Its also a good one. Heres why. The sixers looked past incredibly small sample for embiid to just 31 games in three years. To see what he brought during that short time. He was a beast on the court. He is a game changer for this team. Just look at tonight. Knowing that why wouldnt you put your faith and your been account in the hands of this guy when youre only other option to wait until after the season when hes a restricted free agent . Come on. No. Locking up embiid makes sense. Especially since his new contract has given him new life back on the court. So trust the process. He should be making it rain this season. More than just dollars.
