Kentucky Fried Chicken’s new commercial for its Australian audience is controversial as it allegedly depicts tones of racism.

The fastfood chain’s new video shows a group of black people in a festive mood. One white guy is sitting in the midst of the raucous crowd. Then he says,

“Need a chicken when you are stuck in an awkward situation?”

Ouch!
