End discriminatory practices by Hallmark and the Mahogany line of greeting cards, specifically regarding black fathers.

Created by J.B. on June 16, 2014

The Hallmark Mahogany line degrades black men by selling a separate "To Mom on Father's Day" greeting card in addition a similar card sold in their general line. Although they offer a "To Dad on Mother's Day" card in their general line, no demographic is specifically targeted on Mother's Day or any other holiday the way black men are targeted on Father's Day. Offering this card does more damage than good and creates generalizations (i.e. black men are not there for their families) that were created by prejudiced groups over 100 years ago. This petition is to end the sell of the Mahogany line of "To Mom of Father's Day" card due to its discrimination against black men.
