Three PSA campaigns each reproduced restrictive forms of diversity inclusion

Evidence

Despite seeking to deconstruct the binary citizen/terrorist, Arabs, Muslims, and Sikhs are not included in this diverse display. There are no visible markers of anything Arab, Muslim, or Sikh in the ads-no veil, no mosque, no turban, no beard; no distinctive Arab, Muslim, or Sikh clothing; and no Arab accent. — Evelyn Alsultany, Arabs and Muslims in the Media, 1158 (#exemplifies, via linked claim)
