6965: Racial Profiling On Madison Avenue.

All the drama surrounding the Henry Louis Gates, Jr. affair makes one think about the racial profiling that happens in the advertising industry.

On Madison Avenue, Blacks are routinely pulled over and presumed to be:

Security Guards
Mailroom Workers
Receptionists
Custodians
Cafeteria Cooks
Elevator Attendants
Chief Diversity Officers
Visitors From The Multicultural “Partner” Agency
Diversity Advisory Committee Members
Inner-City Outreach Program Interns
NAACP Officials
Rabble-Rousers
MC Hammer

And if an incident like the Henry Louis Gates, Jr. affair ever took place, the 4As President would probably invite the opposing parties to Madison Avenue for beer malt liquor.
