1134 1134  1. **General Observations:**
1135 - - Based on **47 athlete interviews**, cherry-picked from non-revenue Division I sports.
1136 - - The study claims **segregation”**, but presents no evidence of actual exclusion or policy bias — just demographic imbalance.
1137 + - Analyzed **47 college athlete narratives** to explore racial disparities in non-revenue sports.
1138 + - Found three interrelated themes: **racial segregation, racial innocence, and racial protection**.
1137 1137  
1138 1138  2. **Subgroup Analysis:**
1139 - - Attributes **White participation** in certain sports to "systemic racism", ignoring **self-selection, geography, and cultural affinity**.
1140 - - Claims White athletes are “protected” from race discussions — but never engages with **Black overrepresentation in revenue sports**.
1141 + - **Predominantly white sports programs** reinforce racial hierarchies in college athletics.
1142 + - **Recruitment policies favor white athletes** from affluent, suburban backgrounds.
1141 1141  
1142 1142  3. **Other Significant Data Points:**
1143 - - White athletes are portrayed as **ignorant of their privilege**, a claim drawn entirely from CRT frameworks rather than behavior or outcome.
1144 - - **No empirical data** is offered on policy, scholarship distribution, or team selection criteria.
1145 + - White athletes are **socialized to remain unaware of racial privilege** in their athletic careers.
1146 + - Media and institutional narratives protect white athletes from discussions on race and systemic inequities.

1155 + - **White athletes show limited awareness** of their racial advantage in sports.
1156 + - **Black athletes are overrepresented** in revenue-generating sports but underrepresented in non-revenue teams.
1155 1155

1169 - - Treats **racial imbalance as proof of racism**, bypassing merit, interest, or socioeconomic context.
1169 + - Focuses primarily on **Division I non-revenue sports**, limiting generalizability to other divisions.
1170 + - Lacks extensive **quantitative data on racial demographics** in college athletics.
1170 1170  
1171 1171  3. **Suggestions for Improvement:**
1172 - - Include **White athlete perspectives** without pre-framing them as racially naive or complicit.
1173 - - **Compare all sports**, including those where Black athletes thrive and lead.

1631 -**Primary Observations:**
1632 -
1633 -White Americans have become increasingly receptive or favorable toward Black figures in advertising, even over timeframes of widespread cultural change.
1634 -
1635 -These preferences held across product types, media formats, and ad genres.
1636 -
1637 -**Subgroup Trends:**
1638 -
1639 -Studies from the 1960s–1980s showed preference for in-group racial representation, which has dropped sharply for Whites in recent decades.
1640 -
1641 -The largest positive attitudinal shift occurred between 1995–2020, coinciding with major DEI and cultural programming trends.
1642 -
1643 -**Specific Case Analysis:**
1644 -
1645 -The authors position this as “progress,” but offer no critical reflection on the effects of displacing White imagery from national advertising narratives.
1646 -
1647 -Completely omits consumer preference studies in countries outside the U.S., especially in more homogeneous nations.

1652 -**Strengths of the Study:**
1653 -
1654 -Large-scale dataset across decades provides a clear empirical view of long-term trends.
1655 -
1656 -Useful as a benchmark of how White American preferences have evolved under sociocultural pressure.
1657 -
1658 -**Limitations of the Study:**
1659 -
1660 -Fails to ask whether increasing diversity is consumer-driven or culturally imposed.
1661 -
1662 -Ignores the potential alienation or displacement of White cultural identity from mainstream advertising.
1663 -
1664 -Assumes “diverse equals better” without testing economic or emotional impact of those shifts.
1665 -
1666 -**Suggestions for Improvement:**
1667 -
1668 -Include non-White viewer reactions to all-White or traditional American imagery for balance.
1669 -
1670 -Test whether consumers notice racial proportions or experience fatigue from overcorrection.
1671 -
1672 -Explore regional or class-based variance among White viewers, not just aggregate averages.

1675 -{{expandable summary="📌 Relevance to Subproject"}}
1676 -
1677 -Demonstrates how White cultural imagery has been steadily replaced or downplayed in the public sphere.
1678 -
1679 -Useful for showing how marketing professionals and researchers frame White displacement as “progress.”
1680 -
1681 -Empirically supports the decline of White in-group preference — possibly due to reeducation, guilt framing, or media saturation.
