Today, @PopCollab joined @domesticworkers in partnership with over 120 leading actors, directors, advocates, & nonprofit orgs in releasing an open letter calling on Hollywood to prioritize social impact in the wake of film and television production company Participant’s closure.

[Pop Culture Collab @PopCollab]

“As we say goodbye to Participant, we must underscore that values-based storytelling is needed now more than ever. We call upon Hollywood to meet the moment. There is a whole ecosystem of people, connected by the work of the last 20 years of Participant, ready to work with you.”
