Well sort of

I don't know which to laugh at more, the people triggered by this or Adidas thinking they wouldn't be triggered

And speaking of Rachel Dolezal.
Wouldn't her and Warren make the perfect running mates for 2020?

Well they can both claim to be presidential because they have a little Bill Clinton in them. What's Bill going to say?  :rofl:

So an all white shoe is not the best way to celebrate black history month.  I notice it is a running shoe also, but I won't speculate on that.   :-X

I am thinking all black wouldn't really work either.  Maybe a shoe in general is not the best way to go about that.

I was trying to do a mental exercise of what they could have done to make it worse, but I am not coming up with any good ideas.
