#Converse is facing backlash online after an image from its Chuck 70 X campaign showed shoes dangling beneath pointed white fabric, prompting comparisons to Ku Klux Klan hoods and imagery associated with lynching. Converse has since removed the image and issued an apology: “We’re sorry. We understand why this image is deeply upsetting and recognize that we got this wrong. We removed it from our channels and are working to remove it everywhere it appeared. This should not have happened, and we will do better.”
