Amazon pulls some children’s products after slogan backlash

January 30, 2018

A range of products featuring the slogan, "Slavery gets sh&t done," are now off the virtual shelves at Amazon following a backlash from anti-slavery organizations and consumers.

The products included shirts, mugs and bags from third-party sellers, according to a New York Post report.

"All Marketplace sellers must follow our selling guidelines and those who don't will be subject to action, including potential removal of their account," an Amazon spokesman said in a statement, according to the Post.
