Offensive Google App: Make Me Asian

Feeling bored?  What smartphone apps do you have to entertain yourself? 

http://www.npr.org/2013/01/12/169201593/make-me-asian-app-sparks-online-backlash

Such games perpetuate offensive Asian stereotypes. 

Some may find it acceptable to mock Asian Americans, but what if we were to have an app that were to "Make Me Black" (or fill in any other racial category)? 

What can be done to send a strong message to those responsible?  Be a part of the thousands of advocates to let Google and GooglePlay know if you feel such past times are not acceptable.  Change.org created an online petition:  http://www.change.org/petitions/google-remove-the-racist-make-me-asian-make-me-indian-apps-from-googleplay

Let your voice be heard.
