Addressing Racial Inequalities in the Advertising Industry:
The advertising industry is still predominately a man's world — a white man’s world at that. In 2019, numbers show that people who identify as African American or Black account for roughly 8% and those who identify as Hispanic or Latinx account for only 12.5% of those working in this industry. While these numbers are on the rise, the pace of progress is slow. We explore what companies can do to make the advertising industry more inclusive of people of color.
