Coke pulls offensive Christmas ad but faces backlash from indigenous rights group

Coca-Cola is under fire for an advertisement unveiled in Mexico, focusing on the indigenous Mixe community, that some believe struck a racist, colonialist and offensive tone. The ad features a group of model-like white teens driving to a remote community of Totontepec in the country's southern Oaxaca state, where they build a Christmas tree in a town square and begin handing out bottles of Coke.
