尼尔森在黑人历史月庆祝新黑人文艺复兴

In honor of Black History Month 2020, we celebrated the last decade of Black history, culture and creativity. Since 2010, there has been a visible increase in how African American communities are represented and reached across various platforms. Data from our latest report on Black consumers shows that shifts can be seen across industries—from increased African American music and entertainment content featured on television and streaming services to the rise of Black influence in fashion, sports, technology and beyond. This period has been coined the New Black Renaissance. 

"在过去的十年中，黑人的创造力得到了真正的恢复，黑人消费者、商界领袖和影响者的影响力日益增强，这一点有目共睹，"美国战略社区联盟和消费者参与高级副总裁谢丽尔-格雷斯（Cheryl Grace）说。"我们看到非裔美国人不仅在体育和说唱音乐等你期待的领域，而且作为内容和产品的创造者，他们的力量也在不断增强。

In February, Nielsen associates joined us on social media to celebrate the New Black Renaissance. We shared highlights on 推特 和 LinkedIn about African American achievements and also spotlighted African American Nielsen employees who are movers and shakers on the job in a video. Employees from all backgrounds and regions were also encouraged to attend internal and external Black History Month events some which featured our own Black leaders. 

在整个月中，谢丽尔-格蕾丝在许多客户和社区活动中发表了演讲，分享了尼尔森对非洲裔美国消费者日益增长的力量的洞察。这些活动包括在Omnicomm、谷歌、阳狮、沃尔玛和蒂芙尼举行的小组讨论。尼尔森新兴领导人巴谢尔-刘易斯（Bashel Lewis）有幸参加了蒂芙尼的活动："我哭了--看到四位来自不同行业的黑人女性谈论黑人消费者在奢侈品零售业中的力量，这对我来说是一个难忘的时刻。很多时候，当你听到奢侈品这个词时，黑人通常被排除在这个范畴之外。但谢丽尔-格蕾丝用数据反驳了这一点，这让我很激动，因为这几乎就像是我们在为那些在这些领域中常常被忽视的人发声。 

Then, on Feb. 26, Leslie Pitterson, VP, Communications, Nielsen Global Media, spoke on a Black History Month Celebration panel at FreeWheel, to discuss the Black experience in the workplace and how to achieve success.
