I get so tired when reading this stuff then seeing the casting announcements lately, as the research notes cast diversity dipped in 2025 when compared to previous years.
This means there are roughly 238 less writers’ room. Say every room is anywhere from 6 to 10 writers — that’s 1428 to 2380 jobs gone. Not to mentions staff/assistants.
I worked in this room, led by toxic leadership. No longer scared of consequences for speaking my truth. Sorry to innocent victims who are out of work. In the end, God is good to those who do good.
@vincentpowell Thank you for your kind words and encouragement! Keeping my faith and working on my own healing journey def restored my hope. May an abundance of opportunities come to you and all of us fighting to make it better!
I’m touched by this outpouring of support, thanks y’all! But Black, Latino, POC, LGBTQ+ representation in media is on the decline, so please support in any way you can! To my fellow support staff and artists, please keep fighting. We’re in this together.
