Target is apologizing and pulling a controversial Halloween “Circus Clown” costume after it sparked outrage for resembling racist minstrel imagery. The company removed the item on August 24, acknowledged the harm caused—especially to Black customers, employees, and partners—and pledged to review internal processes to prevent future missteps. This follows past controversies, including backlash over their Pride Month collection. Target says this is just the first step toward building a more inclusive product line while continuing to offer other popular Halloween costumes.
