Defend Yourself with the Gringo Mask


Okay so there is a massive social media push against what's going on in Arizona, but are we taking it a bit far? This is obvious push from a certain Hispanic advertising agency but I completely forgot their name; I believe they are based in Miami, FL. According to the GringoMask website, the objective of this action is to dignify and support the Hispanic community, with the firm intention of taking it to the street and confronting Arizona’s statute SB 1070.

The idea is to print out a picture of a Caucasian man and/or woman and start wearing it around town. Would you print, cut and wear this mask? I understand the political significance but somehow I think this is a bit much.

This is hilarious! I doubt many people will wear them though... Perhaps if there's an organised march arranged by Zubi the ad agency - it could be effective? Would you wear it on the street?

Thanks for getting it! Indeed our purpose was to bring to light some satire to a ridiculous statute! This is 2010 not 1810. Tell a friend and spread the word!
