This is an image from one of Benetton's ad campaigns back in the 1990's. It came under fire because of its negative connotations in the united states, because black women once were forced to nurse white people's children whilst their own went hungry. I think this is a tremendous miscalculation from the People at Benetton and although it has never been released in the States or the UK it has damaged benettons image.

They did still use this image in campaigns in 77 countries.
