Just a friendly reminder (before the reminders become not so friendly) that your sets moving forward (union & indie) NEED to be diverse. There literally aren’t anymore excuses.
Yesterday was my first day back on set after CoVid 19, my producer was a WOC (not Black). I asked about the diversity and she confirmed that it would be a diverse set. Beside her, myself and the PA that I hired noone else was BIPOC nor was there gender parity. My shock and disbelief turned to anger very quickly. No longer will this be happening, its sheer laziness and ignorance. This is fair warning I’ll start a system to start calling out these producers.
White supremacy effects everything and everyone, its roots are deep and wide. Take a good look at yourself, your actions and your surroundings. If your film network isn’t diverse, You Are The Problem!
Thanks for listening. Don’t be racist, Defund the Police and Make Ripples Where You Are.
