LMAO what do Afro Latinos look like? I just asked a creative to include more pictures of Afro-Latinos in our hispanic messaging and she said "I tried to find pictures of videos that looked authentic but they didn't have the right look, it's a very specific look". So no black people in the ad cause this white passing lady needs to gate keep who looks latina enough. The blond, blue eyed women in the photos passed though... UGHH.

That sounds like a lazy search and an even lazier excuse. Even if she has a VERY limited view of what Afro-Latinos should look like (which is ridiculous), the internet has absolutely everything and everyone.

Like it’s not like she said they don’t exist she just said that ALL of the videos available on the internet and she not a single black person seemed “to be authentically Afro latino, to have that look”

Sorry we don’t all look like Celia Cruz!!! It’s a Miami agency too like… y’all should know better.

Whenever I got promoted to digital ACD a few years ago, I noticed my pay was much lower than I expected for the market I’m in, hard to find skillsets, performance, and visibility I’ve brought to the agency. I’ve brought this up a few times and was told HR would do research into salary equity, but the convo always fades. I put my foot down with my GCD, and she supports me, but I would like to come to the table with my own research. Where should I be looking for accuracy?
