In 2019, there was a decline in the representation of people perceived as "non-white" on French television: 15 percent of people were perceived as such in 2019 compared to 17 percent in 2018. Yet this representation had been steadily increasing since 2014 (14 percent in 2014, 16 percent in 2016, and 17 percent in 2017 and 2018). In 2019, about half of people perceived as non-white represented in television programs were perceived as black.
