While perusing a November 2008 British GQ at my internship (in the name of research of course) I came across this Replay advertisement that got my pulse rate up. Yes, they were featuring Native men in this ad. And not Middle Eastern/Italian/Fill-in-the-ethnicity here men pretending to be Native, but real Native American men.
I think this is a great step in the right direction for inclusiveness and portrayal. Sure the guy on the right is a tad bit smoking, but the guy on the left is handsome, but also not so stereotypically hot.
I was so excited about this ad, I perused the net to find more of this ad campaign, unfortunately it looks like I missed the boat, but there is a 'making of' video.
