I actually said something to one of my vendors that of the 100+ pages in their catalog, their were only 2 Asian, 5 black, and no Latino models!
he corrected me by finding 1 latino looking boy, but only because he looked tanner than the others.
It's not about segregation, its about awareness. Many people never notice when an ad campaign, or an entire magazine is all-Caucasian, and many times, that's the case.

thank you thank you thank you fab answer!!!
