The Importance of Diversity || with Ahsante

I sat down with Ahsante aka AhsanteTheArtist to discuss diversity and representation on screen. We chat about the importance of representation in film and TV, Brandy's Cinderella, with Whoopi Goldberg and , OITNB (Orange Is The New Black), the bury your gays trope, suffering of black characters on screen, the significance of intersectionality in these portrayals and mooooore.

We also talked about Hamilton, but it didn't fit into the video... but I might upload a mini vid of that convo if people want :)

Check out the video we did about intersectionality on her channel here: https://youtu.be/QUAEvuxkBoY
