NYC’s Return to Indoor Dining Fails Restaurant Workers. Here’s Why. | Eater NY

"In a commercial for the Wind Creek casino in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, I watched a lithe person step out of a Lincoln Navigator into a wonderland of slot machines, card tables, and pink martinis; everyone in the clip wears face coverings except inside the restaurants, yet no one is actually shown eating or drinking. The ad specifically depicts white restaurant patrons as maskless while conversing or waiting in the immediate vicinity of a masked food runner who appears to be Black, and the narrator urges viewers to 'Dine like you haven’t in months,' a portrayal that I read as codifying the assumption that diners won’t inconvenience themselves for the safety of service workers." - Ryan Sutton
