A Red Cross Hospital pool’s safety rules signboard was chided as being “super racist,” prompting the hospital to issue an apology and a promise to replace the controversial poster.
At the top of the problematic poster are the words “Be Cool, Follow the Rules,” with depictions of children playing underneath. Some of the white children in the drawing are labeled with an arrow pointing toward them and praised for behaving “cool,” while some children of color have an arrow pointing toward them as they push white children, break pool safety rules, and behave in a “not cool” manner.
A social media user named John Sawyer noticed the poster hanging up in Colorado, took to Twitter, and called the sign “super racist“:
