There's nothing wrong with diversity, but it's weird when it's ALL you see in commericals and movies nowadays. It distracts from the plot of the movie or the object they're selling.
For instance, I remember watching this movie that was suppose to take place in medieval England(or somewhere in Europe) and they had these warriors who were Blacks, Asians and women as the main characters(heroes) of the movie. Come on...in europe 1,000 years ago? They also had two good guys who were white, but guess what...they were gay. And of course all the strong white males were the bad guys in the movie. There was no diversity on the bad guys side.
That's your racism talking. You see what you want to see, and it bothers you deep down. So what. Grow up and learn to respect other people.
Advertisements are known to reinforce the convention or the norm, in order to appeal to a wider audience. It’s a welcome sign to see them break away from the usual.
Thankfully we are getting to the point where the racism some people on here express quite freely is becoming socially unacceptable. A little slow though on here and in parts of the US. You have to carry some pretty deeply ingrained racist beliefs to be bothered by the appearance of mixed couples in commercials; stats show that minorities still have less presence in media then what occurs in real life, but it's changing rapidly and some people are having trouble adjusting to it.
“Stats show”. LOLstats show that minorities still have less presence in media then what occurs in real life
Black people make up 13.4% of the U.S. population. In what fairytale land do you honestly believe that only 1 out of every 10 people in media are black??
