If you look at it from that point of view, then I can see why you would have that opinion.
I look at it differently. When I think of black and white in this context, I think of different things besides race. And, when I looked up the meanings of those colors, it reinforced my view.
I'm looking at black as night.....as sucking in all the light......of hiding..of naughty things that happen in the night. I'm looking at white as day.....as things out in the open....of lots and lots of light....even of angels.
For me there are no conotations of this ad. If you feel differently, more power to you. Everyone sees things differently.
