Satire isn't enough to deal with racism
Talking about racism is a minefield. I shouldn't, and I wouldn't, do it if I'm not providing positive alternatives. Is it obvious enough that the fix is to teach inclusive marketing to business students, or do I need to spell it out, how I do it? The main way I've found to get away from bad traditions is to stop treating tradition itself as a good thing. A good tradition is good because of the good, not because of the tradition. All the horribleness of the Amazon marketing comes from the tendency to copy—To phone it in, to avoid thinking about things, to copy exactly what your competitors do except change one little thing. It comes from fear of missing out.
TL;DR: Creativity is the enemy of racism.
