Is Nivea's New Ad Racist???

Uh oh.

Nivea has a lot of offended customers ex-customers on their hands and it’s all over the new Nivea for Men ad.

The ad in question shows a black man throwing a head with an afro attached to it and the words Re-Civilize Yourself, which many consider to be racist.

Since the ad went live, Nivea’s Facebook page is being flooded with angry comments and pictures of people and their civilized afros.

Nivea has yet to release a statement or apology, but we’re sure that will be coming very soon.

What do U think? Is this ad racist??? Sound off (below)!
