格兰威特广告亵渎南非妇女大游行历史 家属回应：道歉「完全没有抓住重点」
保乐力加旗下苏格兰威士忌品牌格兰威特在南非「妇女月」投放广告，借1956年反种族隔离妇女大游行的历史影像与先辈声音推销威士忌，引发非洲人国民大会及游行领袖家属强烈谴责，被批「先辈的牺牲不是营销道具」。品牌撤下广告并于8月28日公开道歉，但多位游行领袖家属9月2日联合声明回应称道歉「完全没有抓住重点」，要求格兰威特作出透明解释。
The Glenlivet has been urged to provide a transparent explanation for a South Africa Women's Month advert that was taken down after widespread outrage.
The families of the women who led South Africa's 1956 anti-apartheid march have responded to a public social media apology issued by The Glenlivet.
The Pernod Ricard-owned whisky brand's South Africa channel released an advert on social media at the end of August starring actor Dineo Langa.
The advert depicted Langa holding a glass of Glenlivet 18 as she walked through a building showing portraits of women who led the 1956 Liberation March in South Africa against Apartheid laws: Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, Lillian Ngoyi, and Sophia Williams-De Bruyn.
The advert also included a voiceover of Madikizela-Mandela.
It has since received widespread condemnation for referencing the march and tying it to alcohol.
