Apple releases various country bands for the Olympics every four years and I've never seen someone complain, other than if their country didn't get a watch band released. You don't see people from Japan complaining that Apple released a band the correlates to the French flag, etc.As someone who is mixed with black and white, it is honestly upsetting so many have such negative comments on this thread. Stop looking at things that everything showing representation is "identity politics", seriously what is wrong with being able to buy bands or have a wallpaper that just represent African Americans? Do you get mad over Cancer Awareness colors? LGBTQ colors? What if Apple released an American Flag style band? would that be considered Identity politics then? I feel like those who have a problem with this band need a reality check and not everything is "Woke". Want to feel more represented then shoot emails to Apple encouraging more band options, but do not try to limit or desire limit to others because you are well..excuse me but butthurt.
That's how you know it's just plain racism. It's a shame you have to see hate on just about any corner of the internet...
