Black gay fathers defend controversial photo in new ad campaign
Last year, a photo of two gay fathers doing their daugther’s hair went viral.

Last year, a photo of two Black gay fathers doing their daughter’s hair went viral. The story sparked a conversation on racism and homophobia.
Today, Kordale and Kaleb are defending that controversial photo in a new ad campaign.
The couple, who live in Atlanta, tell their story as part of Nikon’s I am Generation Image campaign
The couple never thought the photo showing them taking care of their daughters, would go viral.
“What happened was, we were in the bathroom doing the girls hair and I said, ‘oh let me take a picture.’ It was simple, innocent picture… and then next thing you know it went viral. I’m still amazed today,” Kordale explained.
The photo had positive and negative responses. Overall, Kordale and Kaleb hope the images that they share of their family show how much their family is just like everyone else’s.
“I think this camera, as we grow and as the family grows, will better be able to explain to everybody what type of family we are. We as parents bring kids into the world and we have to guide them to be better people than we are, and we want them to be better people than we are. We want them to succeed and do things that we weren’t able to do. Those kids have our heart.”
