Honestly don’t think advertising is good for Asians - I’ve met very few if any especially in strategy.

🙋🏻‍♀️ but I do feel pretty lonely. I haven’t encountered very many other Asian strategists in my 8 years of working ... Analytics plenty, but only a handful in Strat. We rock tho!

Curious what’s the gender breakdown here so far ?

I disagree. In Asian markets local planners are invaluable, rather that expatriates who don’t understand the consumer.

Additional Posts in Asians in Advertising

I've been seeing a lot of ADCOLOR posts on linkedin, and some of the people who are liking and reposting it are some of the same people who were blatantly racist and rude to me when I worked with them. I wish there was something I could say/do about it, but it's literally making my blood boil seeing them like posts about "uplifting" and "supporting" BIPOC, only because I know that once they get off their screens and they're the meanest people

Is your agency doing anything for AAPI Heritage Month?

How have your respective agencies, leaders, and teams responded to the influx of discrimination and hate against Asians, as well as the nuances & intersectionality of uplifting women, BLM, etc?

How did you feel about how they may or may not have acknowledged this, and if they did, are they putting/planning to put action behind their words?
