ADDICT: The Simpsons Black Up all indie

The Simpsons have ‘blacked up’ for a new advertising campaign.

The family was given the makeover by an Angolan advertising agency to promote the series on the satellite service DStv.

As well as the darker skin, Lisa and Maggie’s hair has been braided, the whole family’s clothes have been changed for more typical African garb – while the picture of the boat that traditionally hangs over their sofa has been replaced by a savannah landscape.

    this so racist. lisa and maggie's hair is sticking up as if they are "pickanninies". to those that dont know what pickaninny is: its a racial stereotype for black children that emerged durring slavery. Fashion Indie, delete this post please.
