I selected this image. I selected this image because what was prominent to me was that the person underneath the cover up clothing was actually someone unexpected. This observation caught my eye because it makes me visualize that everything and everyone may not be what they may seem like by their appearance on the outside. This image also makes me wonder about things that I haven't tied that I view negatively. Also providing a some kind of inspiration to try and experience new things, to talk to more people expanding my experience and knowledge

I selected this image because something mite look real but really is not. Also that you should never judge a book by its cover. This makes me think that you really need to get to know someone. This makes me feel confused but kind of mad at myself as well.

For the second one where it looks like the darker women is turning into a lighter one. I can see that it can seem off/white washing since the person is "turning" a different race. The ad is about body wash so it makes it a little worse. I can maybe see that its saying its for everyone, but its hard to understand since its a bad ad in general. This makes me think of how it was even approved since it looks so off in many ways then one. This also makes me feel just a little weird. I don't know fully what they were thinking when making the ad. So I can't put my full judgement on it yet. But for now ill just say its insensitive.

I selected the lady who was lifting up her shirt and then all of a sudden transformed to a black woman to a white woman. The first thing I noticed immediately was the way her skin looked after taking it off, it was such a drastic change in skin color its almost impossible not to notice which is why I think this ad is so wrong. It makes me think what was the real motive behind this and where the idea that white is equal to clean or purity. This whole ad makes me feel disturbed and that this ad is saying that black is dirty and that white is seen as clean, how was this okay or even allowed as an ad.

i selected the second post because when i saw the black lady turn white i was like so confused. knowing that this is a advertisement for soap i instantly knew that they were trying to say that black or darker skin is ¨dirty¨. this is offensive to people of color cause now the soap they might have been using is calling them dirty or that lighter skin is better. this is racist and overall this whole advertisement makes me so uncomfortable

I selected this picture because the change in color caught my eyes. After looking at this picture I thought it may be racially connected but I misunderstood. This makes me feel good that they aren't just advertising with white people and they are using poc too as models.

I chose this advertisement for Dove because it gives off the idea that darker skin tones are bad and being white is good. This seems racist because it is depicting one skin color is better than the other.

# data[].attributes.body
i chose this picture because it show that white is a "form of purity" white/fairer skin was always seen as a thing that everyone wanted that you need to be superior and better. and if you were darker it was seen as unwanted undesirable. that has been such a large trend in America and has began to become in beaded in our history. now we all see lighter skin as better and darker as not as valuable. this also cause conflict between the black community and made the African Americans realized that colorism is larger in our own community as we thought. dark skinned African Americans are seen as " loud, ghetto , disrespectful, ugly" and light skins are seen as "proper ,exotic , calm , sweet beautiful" and it makes me feel like that we all see the differences in skin color and we choose to ignore it

I chose this image because it is advertising lotion. I noticed that they are not just using a lotion but also a cream and that to get visibly fairer skin, and according to one of the definitions of fairer, this product would give you a lighter skin tone after some use. This makes me confused as a black woman is advertising for this "skin lightening" product.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose this image because of it main advertisement, which is the words. "Fairer skin" indicates to make whiter skin more visible. I know this because the "fair-skinned" definition is a person having relatively pale/white skin. Many people use the word "fair skin" to describe Disney princesses who are mainly white. While having those words next to a black woman makes me wonder why they would try to advertise lightening skin in a present-day ad. This makes me feel stunned because to this day people of color face colorism just for a lotion ad which is not right at all.

# data[].attributes.body
I selected this image because I feel like its telling me if you have dark skin you're considered "dirty". Just from this picture it makes me feel uncomfortable and mad because all skin colors are beautiful and shouldn't be defined as "dirty" or "ugly" based a skin color a person has. Instead the brand should show what it does and how it helps your skin feel great and youthful and not show how it changes your skin color.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose the image of the lady changing skin colors after changing from a brown shirt to a white shirt. I noticed it is an advertisement for a dove soap. I feel like the ad is implying that if you use the soap your skin becomes fairer and whiter. This is showing how the brand thinks having whiter skin is more superior or better. This is racism because you are making it seem one skin color is bad and the other is better. The ad is wrong and is not right at all.

# data[].attributes.body
I selected this image since it gives me the idea that white is being advertised and shown to be better than darker skin. I noticed that it just happens to be that a black woman is on the before side and there is a white woman on the after side. Not only that, but the quote at the bottom states that you will have more visible and beautiful skin. This also implies that white is superior over black. This makes me confused and it makes me think of how they are able to get this through and use this as a way to advertise their products.

I selected this image because its telling others that anything dark-skinned is considered 'weirdly' and that you should 'clean' yourself to look more better, hence encouraging that a black person to a white person is inferior, in a advertisement. At first glance, I can imagine someone taking a few seconds to realize what the advertisement actually meant, and I can imagine their reaction to this would be bad, maybe cringe-level. This honestly makes me feel a bit cringe, considering it's thy DOVE, the brand for cleaning your skin. I find it kind of funny and ironic that I use this brand of shampoo/body wash, and I Totally would have not assumed a brand like this would do a advertisement specifically for anti-blackness. It makes me think of what other people during that time when the advertisement felt and thought at the time it was advertised. It honestly really gives me another perspective of Dove, and now I could have doubting thoughts about them now and then, probably.

I chose this image. I first noticed how the skin color changes as the ladies shown take off a shirt. I wonder what exactly does the image has anything to do with the product, because from what I see literally nothing about it that advertises the product. I guess it can show that Dove makes your skin "perfect" and that perfect means being white. But then that just raises another question on what made them think that was a good idea. Overall, the entire advertisement makes me incredibly uncomfortable.

I chose the picture of the woman who takes off her shirt and her skin turns into lighter skin. I first noticed on the image of a African American woman in the upper left corner taking off her shirt, but then when I looked down at both the bottom left and right corners, her skin just changed really quickly into a light skin color. I do also noticed the "Dove" body soap bottle in the corner, advertising the product that it can clean off the darker skin tone, just to become a white person. This makes me shocked and quite angry because I guess that's kinda offensive to people with color. I do think everyone wanted some respect and trust.

I selected the lady lifting her shirt who is black and when she takes off her shirt, the lady turns into a white lady image. I first noticed how quickly the lady changes her skin color once she took off her shirt, and then I see a picture of Dove in the right bottom corner advertising their products- basically saying if you're dirty use Dove and you will be cleansed to be a white person; pure. This makes me think how in the world did the creator of this ad thought this was okay. Because this makes me feel angered how someone can think they can create this kind of photo and think they will get away with it. The creator thinks it is okay that the best skin color and person is a white person and every other race is dirty. Which is false, and low.

I chose this image.  I first noticed the advertisement itself and most notably the quote. This makes me think very unclearly, I am not sure if it is racist or just badly worded.  If they are promoting a skincare product, they should really consider rewording this or changing it up as by saying ”White is clarify”, it sounds as if it makes people of color vague

# data[].attributes.body
I selected this image because it gives an idea that anything other then white is bad. This makes me feel pretty uncomfortable because skin color is irrelevant and they should be advertising how well it cleans you not how it "changes" skin color.
