Some news that would be completely mundane today but scary or shocking in the past.

Just an advertisement with a smiling black guy would do.
feels a bit like cheating given that the man in the picture is clearly being presented as a server, not a consumer
Fair. I didn't understand what OP was getting at, so I took them literally. It seemed strange to ignore that white people in the early 20th loved depictions of smiling black people in servant roles.
As for ads targeted at black consumers... now I'm curious. I know there were newspapers targeted at black readers. I wonder if they had ads.
Yeah I think a better answer would've been "an ad with a black man smiling at his white wife"
For bonus points, make it clear in the ad that the man is a house husband and the wife is a working professional lol
Give them a gay son marrying his partner, really blow some heads.
