NEW YORK, NY- In wake of the worldwide outcry for increased equality, handicraft company Crayola has released a long-awaited statement admitting that white crayons have no real function and should’ve been taken out of circulation a long time ago.
“At Crayola, we are committed to inclusiveness and diversity by inspiring all kids to create and see the beauty of people in all shades,” read the company’s Twitter post. “However, we now realize that by including a white crayon in our product line, we are not actively serving that goal. Instead we are taking away space that could be given to a crayon of actual colour in favour of one that is only useful when working with construction paper and even then you’d be better off with a Sharpie.”
“Starting today, Crayola products will no longer include white crayons. We hope this will enable more colouring and less whitening, unlike American history classes.”
