Idiots in charge. Everywhere.
Doubt they could have screwed this up worse.
Typical racist BS coming from typical racist BS’ers trying too hard to prove how they are not racist.
Sickening.
The black stamp isn’t even worth 3/5ths of the white stamp.
If no one buys them and they are withdrawn they might be worth something one day. Philatelists know.
They would've been criticized for celebrating light skin with the cheapest everyday stamp in the series while relegating the darkest skin to heavier mail pieces which are rarely sent . . . and people of color can't afford.
There is no way to appease these jagoffs no matter what you do.
You can’t expect Spaniards to know US history but yeah I noticed that too.
Anymore, I don’t even expect Americans to know American history.
LOL. The message I get from this is that it takes two Italians to do the same job as one German.
The lighter ones are worth more!....................
HA hA...I see what you did there. I didn;t know the reveruhnd jacksonn or Al (not too sharp) Ton had any cred in Espana. They must be aliens!

Spain has the second largest number of unmarked mass graves in the world. They still have people living with neighbors who tortured them during the Franco years and even the current government refuses to help families identify relatives who were tortured, murdered and dumped in mass graves. So naturally they have a massive overreaction in the opposite direction and try to prove how progressive they are.
Surprised no Freeper has commented on that yet.
Good point!
I wonder if all the colors are on e single sheet or if you’d need to buy a separate sheet for each color.
I went to the post office twice last week, both times to send letters to England. Normally it costs 1.60. I went to the counter and told them what I wanted. The postman weighed the letter and told me it was 1.60, same as any other time. There was no mention of any type of special stamp. Nothing was offered and I didn’t see any ads for these stamps. Even the post office is ignoring this promotion.
Plenty of atrocities were committed by the Progressive (”Republican”) side during the Spanish Civil War.
“Philatelists know.”
What’s a bj got to do with stamp value?
