Why Is Chevron Using African Women To Sell Gas In America?

Why is the commercial below running in America rather than in Africa? Does Chevron not contribute to fighting AIDS in America? Why are only African women used in the ad even though AIDS affects men also? With this ad Chevron continues the portrayal of Africans as helpless, a picture that sells well in America. If it is true that AIDS affects us all, as the ad claims, why are people all over the world not used in it? This ad is so insensitive that Chevron should be ashamed of itself and pull it off the air.
