Unrepresented Black Faces in T&T Ads
Posted: Monday, March 4, 2013

2013 Telephone Directory

EDITOR: I have just viewed the Trinidad and Tobago Residential Telephone Directory 2013 for the first time. The image consists of 6 faces. I wonder what percentage of Africans and Indians are dark-skinned in Trinidad and Tobago? I also would like to know why so many promotional advertisements in the country are not representative of the dark-skinned black aspect of the population.
