That’s a hilarious and relevant memory that reveals a good deal. That is pretty sick misstep, but I suppose it counts progress when considering ads of the happy and perfect white suburban housewife from the 1950s pushing a vacuum where blacks vanished altogether, which was an improvement on the openly racist ads like the one in 1910 “I Shine” or the creation of Aunt Jemima in 1889 that spread the idea of the affable but “inferior” black domestic house servant used throughout the South. In the longer narrative it actually shows an improvement in white racist advertising tropes of blacks. Thanks for bringing this DEI issue to light by comparing it to the Big Mac “misstep.” It does appear, like in the 1950s ads when “America was great” that this concept of “colored” racial disappearance is happening “Again.”
