Diversity in the Media/Advertising Industry

You see the messages, the commercials and the advertisements, targeting African-American consumers.  Sometimes they miss the mark with messages that aren’t relatable to the consumer or they’re just down right offensive.  Next week a virtual summit will be held to examine diversity in the media and advertising industry. This year the focus will be hiring HBCU graduates.
