Peer Review

I think this is a very important topic due to the vast dissemination of media in the world which we currently life. Images the media constructs inherently impact individuals perception of themselves. The dominant use of White actors in the advertisements, combined with an upper-class image creates unrealistic representations of the population that do not indicate the true diversity of the population in demographic, cultural or economic terms. I think your page could benefit from some images of advertisements in order to have some visuals to indicate the extent of the problem and highlight some of the issues and themes you've spoken about. It could also be of use to highlight some advertisements that have shown a more diverse cultural group such as the dove advertisement with women of many different ethnicities to show the use of this more faithful form of advertisement.
