Gap Apologizes for 'Racist' Ad

Gap says the company is “sorry to anyone we’ve offended.” Apparel maker Gap on Tuesday has apologized for an image used in an ad that some critics said was racially insensitive. The ad in question depicts four young girls that are part of Le Petit Cirque, a traveling circus company that features boys and girls between the ages of 5 to 14. In the image, an African-American girl is posing next to a taller Caucasian girl that is propping her arm on the younger girl’s head.
