I chose this ad because this touch bases on an occurring issue, discrimination of specifically women of color. This photographic ad which also contains a short commercial film illustrates the segregated walls, or isles of division amongst women of color and other races. Black women's hair products and other essentials are separated onto the "ethnic" isles rather than on the "beauty" isles.
With the insecurities of black womens hair texture, they have failed to find products needed to suit their hair needs on the beauty isle. Not only is this psychologically a racist/discrimination thing but this also strengthens black women's insecurities. In today's society black womens beauty is underestimated enough and the division of something as small as beauty products can lower their self esteem.
