Black Millennials are calling for more “inclusive advertising.” YouTube research found that 75% of Black 18-34-year-olds want to see more diverse representation in ads, and 70% are more likely to buy from a brand that takes a stance on race—signifying that brands shouldn’t “just reflect society — [but] push it forward.” Black Millennials are also watching more YouTube than their peers, which the site hypothesizes is “because they feel represented there in a way they don’t in traditional media.” (We explored these topics in our recent Diversity Tipping Point trend.)
