The very definition of un-PC
A Dutch inventor has caused a stir with his new accessory for fans going to the World Cup. (Don't worry about the languages, just watch the vid)

hmm
I don't think at any point in history did African slaves routinely give a white men a piggy backs - but I am probably wrong. So, it isn't exactly conforming to a racist stereotype. And if it was a white person, I would probably be thinking the same as I did just now, 'Is that supposed to be a midget?'. which raises a poignant question: Are black midgets less common in a given population size than white midgets?
What I will say, is that is probably the shittest marketing - or possibly shittest novelty item I have seen in my life. I assume a guy had been making them for decades, and decided to make one for the world cup, used brown felt to recognise the South African part of the ceremony, and made a bit of a controversy, and possibly his first profit since he started selling piggyback-midget-trousers.

"you don't know how much SHIT I've had to take off black midgets!"
(may be nsfw if your boss is sensitive to seeing prostitutes, cocaine or racist midgets)

If you wore one of these in Johannesburg
it'd be like the opening scene in Die Hard 3 when John McLaine is in Harlem.
