I don’t mind talking about what we’re up to at my shop. There’s really no anonymity as a black person in advertising in Toronto, so outing myself here for this topic isn’t a big deal✌🏾. I had many good discussions with the leaders at my agency. They listened. They cried. We got pretty real. They took our advice of focusing on supporting black employees first and foremost. Then, maybe outward displays. I’m happy the conversations are ongoing. I’m optimistic real change is achievable. I think they know they need to make themselves accountable. It’s a good start.

Most large Canadian agencies are led by spineless puppet heads who take their orders from the US. You also can’t succeed in this country without implicitly supporting white supremacy because they make up the bulk of the rich.

Most Canadian agencies don't think they have a problem. Actually, I'm not sure they do have a problem. Don't forget, this is by design. The whole ad industry is built off white supremacy if you really think about it.
