If you look carefully and the coke symbol sideways (with the top of the can on the ground) you see a white man with a mullet (the C) the eye (the first O) the nose (the second C) the mouth (the first A) spiiting (the apostraphe) on a stereotypical black man whos eyes are made up of the C, nose is made up of the O, the lips are the L and the A, and the doo ragg is the top part of the C coming down on the right side of his face. I am shocked. I am also only 15 and i am wondering if i was the first one to discover this.

I think you are just trying to turn nothing into something... You can look at almost anything and twist and contort it to have some sort of meaning, I'm sure that someone somewhere sometime has claimed the same thing about something else... There is no hidden message or image in it... It is just the Word Coca Cola in cursive, get over it...

You are NOT the FIRST one to notice that.

I first heard it from an exchange student from Spain....

And don't take it too seriously... you'll live longer.

Yes, this is positively racist, and yet another prime example of how Americans love to spread their white-supremism racism. If you look closer, you can see the white man's child in the background getting ready to exploit some 3rd world country.

Seriously though, a joke's a joke, but take a look at Coca-Cola's history and how they SUPPORTED NAZI'S!!

Look!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Coc...

In fact, Coke was well known for being the drink of choice by white people who felt that they had superiority over other races.

DEATH TO COCA-COLA AND THE NAZIS!!!

Drink Pepsi or Dr Pepper instead. They taste nicer and you won't be supporting white supremist freaks who deserve to be be******.
Fcuk Coca-Cola, fcuk their sorry racist past, and fcuk the fact they lie about all of their marketing (including their relectance to even want to SELL their drinks to black Americans) and I hope this symbol of America gets as fecking destroyed as those stupid-ass Americans who try to take over the world.

I understand that it may look lie a racist thing, but this logo has been around for so long that it's kinda tough to understand why everyone is making a big deal out of it now. I mean wtf.. if it was anything other than coke that was at fault, like those cheap drinks, then they would probably get a law-suit and be forced to change their logo.. But since it's the Bad-ass coke company, no one can do shit. So all you Marcus Garveys need to Chill. @rokr808
