#GoldSeries

GO #Pantene !
With their haircare line, The Gold Series. Just saw the commercial again. My daughter, now at 13 is seeing her textured hair on a high-profile commercial brand & status in the media. It's a great, great start, and we can do more. The flaw here is that the commercial plays on Black Entertainment Television, with the emphasis on BLACK. Mainstream media and the people watching it still see our America as a white western world. It's important for all cultures to see their concerns addressed not only in front of one another; we already know who we are (for the most part). This is an opportunity for ads to play on mainstream television. America's educators, administrators,  politicians, businesses, and ALL of America's children need to see who we are and not continue to marginalize us in our Black corners in the country. The need to understand "where we're coming from. This is how we make #America great - period because we've yet to achieve it. A great start though, so thank you Pantene! #weneedmorediverselooks #millenniummommy
