I don't believe the promotional video above was created without thought to featuring caucasian models and having it narrated by a man with a Northern European accent. Are countries with predominantly white populations being targeted here? I would imagine most of us can think of reasons why this would be advantageous to WT, mostly monetary.

Here in the UK we used to get Our Kingdom Ministry in English English as opposed to US English. (For Britain it said). Long gone, they can print stuff in a thousand different languages including Welsh, but cannot manage anything in English!

Wow...the video sounds like it is speaking to pre-schoolers! I am shocked how dumbed down these messages have become. They are a far cry from the meatier (though wrong) talks about Revelation and Ezekiel! I am shocked that there are any old school JW's still attending this simplistic gibberish!
