      Chinese posters have mainly Asian people. As expected. Arab posters have mostly Arab people depicted. Indian – with Indians, and African countries tend to draw African people.

      But American is asking “Why German posters from the middle of XX century have mainly white people?” That’s the mystery that I won’t be able to explain to a common American.

        I don’t think any of us were asking why the German posters are the way they are. We are perfectly aware of why. No need to rush to the defense of Nazi propaganda my guy.

        Only half the US population is white. 20% are hispanic.

        Every single one of those posters only shows white people.

        No ones surprised the German poster has German people. Its the American poster portraying a single demographic that is actually the minority in major US urban centers like New York, Los Angeles, Washington DC, Miami, Dallas, Atlanta and Orlando that sticks out.

        with the difference that the united states have substantial amounts of non-white population, which are not portrayed at all. At least half of those posters should portrait people of color to be representative.
