Despite decades of pushback,Poland it takes a long time for racist caricatures to die.
At Glamour Brasil recently staff members shared a photo to the company's Instagram that featured a group of employees bowing and making "slanty eyes," a gesture widely interpreted to be mocking of Asian cultures.

"We would like to apologize to those who have felt offended! We didn’t have that intention and really regret what happened," the magazine wrote.
Em relação ao post de Instagram publicado em 1 de novembro, sobre nossa viagem ao Japão, gostaríamos de nos desculpar. pic.twitter.com/6F0Q16eTNE

The initial post inspired outrage both on Instagram and Twitter, with many expressing shock that the magazine would post something so regressive in 2016.
