Hispanic Influence and Representation in American Entertainment and Consumer Culture

  The United States population is made up of individuals from a variety of cultures, backgrounds, and experiences. With this, Hispanics are a growing part of this diverse population and make up "over 622 million people" in the United States (Korzenny et al., 2024, p.1). They are not only a major part of what makes up our country, but are also key consumers in America. Being such a large part of the population, they hold significant buying power and have an influence over style, trends, and media. However, Hispanic consumers not only influence these elements of our society, but also the American entertainment industry as a whole. Through music, television, and fashion, Hispanics are helping to reshape mainstream culture with their values, ideas, and creative contributions. Yet despite this growing cultural and economic influence, Hispanic consumers and their values have been overlooked, particularly in media and marketing. This essay will explore the growing influence Hispanic consumers have on American entertainment and culture, and why it is essential for media and marketers to recognize and reflect the cultural values they have previously neglected.  By Meghan Bannister Florida State University

What Happens When Brands Stop Advertising?

It's no secret: marketers are under intense pressure to justify their investments and to prove the incremental effect those investments have on business performance.

Neurodiversity Is DEI: Why We Must Speak Up Now

The national conversation around Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) has become increasingly polarized, and dangerously so. What began as a long-overdue effort to recognize and protect marginalized identities—based on race, gender, disability, sexual orientation, and more—has turned into a political battleground. Conservative lawmakers in multiple states have pushed to defund DEI initiatives in public education, corporate training programs, and even health systems, arguing that they are divisive or ideological. But make no mistake: the people hurt most by these rollbacks are not ideologies. They are people. And among the most vulnerable are neurodivergent individuals.
