UK Labour Party Slammed For Baffling ‘Fathers Day’ Image That Suggested Black Father Was Absent

Summit News: The UK Labour Party left Twitter users baffled after it appeared to celebrate Fathers Day using an image of a black child and a transgender father, leading some to be confused and think that the image was in fact reinforcing the stereotype of absent black fathers.

“The coronavirus crisis has reminded us just how important connecting with our loved ones is. Happy Father’s Day to all the dads and carers out there. #HappyFathersDay,” tweeted Labour’s official account.

However, the image used to illustrate the message featured a cartoon “father” who looked more like a woman.

“That dad looks like he’s going for a bra fitting for himself,” remarked one respondent.

Others thought the image suggested Labour was reinforcing the “racist” stereotype of absent black fathers.

“Is this a dig at the black community? Absentee fathers?” asked one. more

  1. Tragic for the black race that so few realize single parenthood is a problem. SHAME on President Kennedy’s New Frontier program and President Johnson’s Great Society movement. Shame on the 1965 House of Representatives and all those democrats who voted with President Johnson. The American black family has never recovered. Johnson’s socialism cancer has now metastasized all over the world.

  2. Call me overly observant, but I’m noticing other things that aren’t right:

    (1) The girl’s boots are several sizes too large and she is standing still.

    (2) It’s difficult for her to walk and she’ll soon be ripped off her feet because the so called father IS walking and holding her hand.

    (3) No girl would be caught wearing a combination of cyan, orange, blue and red clothing. So either Dad is a faggot, or the artist is.

    (4) That Dad is wearing glasses and is a hunchback, possibly Jack-the-Ripper.

    (5) The Dad places one foot almost directly in front of the other as he walks, qualifying him as a sparkly wand-carrying, London fairy.

    The prosecution rests. Verdict: The girl’s future life is messed up.

  3. Aw no. Stick with the cartoon, and defend it. They wanted a transgender “father” with a black child, now they are scrambling after trial balloon is shot down.

    Society not ready for it yet, when the backlash is negligible, then it will be Ok.
