For those who don’t have a Wingstop it’s a restaurant chain that serves several awesome different flavors of hotwings. As I sat here playing on the computer with the TV on in the background one of their commercials came on. In the commercial they started off by showing three people, an Anglo male, a black [...]
Orbitz is a company that helps people with their vacation plans. You can book hotel rooms, book air flights and rent cars. They have rather silly commercials but that’s the way they chose to promote their company, whatever. I did, however, see a commercial by Orbitz focusing on their price guarantee. A couple was going [...]
I’ve been watching a commercial for Oreo cookies by Nabisco. It shows a father and son eating oreo cookies together. As the camera pulls back you see that they are doing so long distance via two laptop computers. I really like this commercial. I don’t know what ethnicity they are but they are not Anglo. [...]
Sorry CNN but I gave you a chance. In a previous post I mentioned your series on Black in America. It’s bad enough that you have a pitifully small number of Hispanics. In fact, I don’t believe you have any major announcers that are Hispanic but I don’t watch early in the morning so maybe [...]
I just watched a commercial for SuperFund on CNN. This commercial featured a Hispanic male as the announcer and was made as if the commercial was in the process of being made. The Hispanic was an attractive male with a wonderful voice and accent but the “filming” kept having to be stopped because the announcer [...]
On March 12, 2009, Cesar Millan, the Dog Whisperer, was sworn in as a U.S. citizen. Congratulations Cesar! I was shocked to learn that Cesar Millan was not a citizen of the United States. The part I found shocking was that in this current climate of hate against Hispanics, particularly Mexicans, a company was willing [...]
I’d like to give Time Warner Cable two thumbs up for their Don Juan commercial. For those who haven’t seen it a young, handsome Don Juan keeps showing up trying to impress an older Anglo woman. All the while romantic Mexican music is playing in the background. This young Don Juan eventually wins the ladie’s [...]
Hispanics are the largest minority in the United States, yet we are routinely ignored. This section will highlight businesses that are inclusive and exclusive of Hispanics.
MSNBC.com wins two thumbs down for their lack of inclusiveness. On the home page of this website you will find the category Race & Ethnicity. If you [...]
The NAACP is the oldest civil rights organization. One would think that joining with this well established group would be beneficial for Hispanics. I feel that to do so would be an unwise decision. This organization may be listed as one that helps people of color (insinuating all) but the color it helps is black. [...]
