Episode 55 - Mark Robinson, Author of "Black on Madison Avenue"
In this episode of TBP, Brian sits down with Mark Robinson, a senior marketing and strategy executive and author of the new book, "Black on Madison Avenue" (available everywhere July 1st). The lack of diversity in advertising has been a long-standing concern, and Mark sheds light on the industry's ongoing struggles with empathy and inclusivity.
