Campaign spotlighted three White advertising leaders who never went to college. See, in adland, even uneducated White folks land jobs ahead of qualified minorities.
Hell, there's that whole ad agency in New Orleans that's purposely staffed mostly with non-traditional people without degrees ( I think one of them was a yo-yo expert even) and even in a city that black, they managed to staff a blindingly white selection of people.
There's no winning. Degree, no degree, portfolio, no portfolio, anybody of color is dead last after hiring white men, white women, and white yo yo magicians.
