As of 2022, 47.1% of Generation Alpha (those born in the mid-2010s) was White in the U.S, making them the first generation to have less than half of their population identifying as White. How (if at all) will multicultural marketing shift and adapt as demographics change?

I think the only thing that will cause it to shift is if more people of color, especially women of color, get into decision making positions on these marketing and advertising teams to drive conversations toward changing the landscape.

Agree except for the gender part - I think men of color would have an equally strong voice for driving change.

Interesting question. I feel like we will start to see a lot of creativity once generations start to come into the workforce and pave their own paths. The core of advertising and marketing will always have some similarities, but believe we are in for a lot of changes here in 10 years.

Oh thank gawd. That means this election is really a change for the future 🇺🇸🥺. I’m so proud of us if we really are able to pull this off.

It means no more identity politics in marketing and brands will be held more accountable for not being authentic in their brand messaging. Companies will have a generation of diverse personalities and cultures to fill their seats with.

With the rise of content creation as well, I totally see companies choosing to hire people that are similar to their customer base as well. Companies will be forced to understand and learn communities in a different way cause everybody mixed! And communities can spot inauthenticity a mile away!

Community over Color 💕💕

Should I consider lateraling?

Hey fishes, can someone tell me how the 80c bracket works, i know i can get exempt upto 1.5lakh under it, what i wanna know is does PF comes under it or not? For example if my yearly pf deduction is 20k and VPF is 10k so now will i still be able to show investment of 1.5lakh under 80c apart from PF and VPF or i'll be able to get exemption on only 1.2 lakh( 1.5lakh-30k= 1.2lakh)?

Thank you in advance!!
