The fallout continues from H&M‘s offensive ad featuring a young black boy wearing a hoodie that read, “Coolest Monkey In The Jungle.”

But, I will tell you who is completely unbothered…Terry Mango, the young model’s mother.
She took to Facebook and defended her decision to let her son model the hoodie and went on to tell [black] folks to “stop crying wolf” and “get over it.”
She wrote:
Am the mum and this is one of hundreds of outfits my son has modelled…stop crying Wolf all the time, unnecessary issue here…get over it.
That’s my son have been to all photoshoots and this was not an exception, everyone is entitled to their opinion about this.
I really don’t understand but not coz am choosing not to but because it’s not my way of thinking. Sorry.
See her post below.
Well…Terry may be cool with it, but Jesse Williams and G-Eazy have announced they too, are canceling H&M.
Your thoughts?
