The Indian unit of the consumer goods company Unilever announced on Thursday that its skin-lightening cream Fair and Lovely will be rebranded. The move follows claims the name creates negative stereotypes about darker skin tones. Hindustan Unilever said the word 'Fair' would be dropped from the product, with a new name yet to be announced.

New way of discrimination is support a political party?

Similar to the word ‘negrito’ in Spanish. Friendly context most of the time.
