ASIANS IN ADS, THE ULTIMATE ACCEPTANCE



WHEN IN EARLY 2020 IMAGES SUDDENLY EMPHASIZED BLACKS AND NORTH AFRICANS, THE ONLY ASIAN WAS A BABY:  

Pharmacy, corner of rues de Tolbiac and Château des Rentiers

Then Asian models were timidly introduced...

Boulevard Vincent Auriol

Gourmet shop boulevard Vincent Auriol and bus stop rue de Tolbiac

Métro Châtelet  

Métro Marcadet Poissonniers
Métro Nationale
Rue Stephenson, in the African neighborhood of La Goutte d'Or

In 2023 they were more numerous...

Rue de Tolbiac and rue Nationale, November 2023
.
And in 2024 they might dominate:

Mall and avenue de Choisy, December 2024

Corner in the Gobelins area, half an hour from "Chinatown," since 2021

The ads can be ambiguous,
but people of color are included...


Place d'Italie mall, January 2024

At last.
