Present throughout both ads are tensions between the moral imperative for white Tacoma community members to donate, their ability to make an impact on the black community, and the helplessness of the black community versus the need for the money recipients to take the bulk of the responsibility to ensuring their business successes. The tagline for the effort “help a black man help himself” contrasts to statements appealing to the great ability of the white community to better the living circumstances of the black community. The black and white color scheme is a striking background for the stark information presented in the ads. [A&SC 20][A&SC 21].
