It's stock photo and...Ah, Black History Month.<br /><br />It's stock photo and minimum artistry time again.<br /><br />Time for half-ass print and banner ads designed by Black ad agencies and designers given a handful of nickles to work with, to run in "multicultural" magazines and websites barely getting by.<br /><br />Time for all the high-end, glossy, expensive "urban market" work "in honor of" Black History Month (i.e with hip hop or jazz playing in the background, and/or starring light-skinned talent with manageable curls) to be created, designed, photographed, filmed and perfected by white people in the US, or white people in Europe, or white people in South Africa. <br /><br />Can't wait to count how many times that One Black Grandpa ends up in every single print ad.
