Pepsi has come under fire after a new ad showing reality TV Star and Model Kendall Jenner handing a can of the drink to a police officer.
In the ad, Jenner is having a photo shoot but becomes distracted by a group of young protesters. She decides to join them, and toward the end, comes face-to-face with a stoic police officer. She offers him a Pepsi and he accepts the drink before cracking a smile.
The imagery at the end of the ad is similar to photos of Ieshia Evans, a protester who was detained while protesting in Baton Rouge following the shooting death of Alton Sterling at the hands of police.
