In shamefully provoked recent times, we’ve watched big name brands run to every front of advertising with imagery of African Americans playing the part in an effort to be more inclusive and to speak to an unsettled diverse audience.
Whether it be a bit late or undecidably forced, it’s timely to see multi-cultural reflections in day-to-day media nonetheless. Authenticity of that representation still has a ways to go, but blackillustrations.com is accelerating the pace of authenticity in the illustrative digital market more noticeably than any of the competitors we know firsthand ie. Adobe, Pixabay, Pixels, Canva, etc.
How much of an impact does diversity weigh in business bank accounts with sales and revenue? What about manufacturing, production, distribution, and operations? Statistics show that 50% of the consumer market is held by black impact despite being marginalized by nearly 70% in population.
We should be speaking to our entire audience as brands and creators and our content should reflect our diversity with noticeable inclusivity standards and revised methods of capture for audiences abroad.
Even as we notice stock image distributors adding piles of black scripted media to their archives, illustrator art files can be difficult to find when searching any terms around black culture. The word “culture” alone goes against the community standards of Facebook.
