A major survey calls for entertainment industry-wide change after revealing that less than half of all respondents believe diversity and inclusion are core industry values.released Thursday further broke down the numbers to show the disparity of thinking between gender and race. For example, 63% of white men said they saw people in the industry welcoming and valuing diverse backgrounds often, compared with 42% of white women and only 27% of Black women.
The findings come with the second part of the industry-wide worker survey, released by the Anita Hill-chaired Hollywood Commission. The report reveals significant differences in perceptions and experiences of bias and inclusion, with the findings urging the industry to make an organizational commitment to diversity.
The new survey found the differences in thinking in views on change - with an overwhelming number of men holding a positive perception of progress made in welcoming diverse backgrounds and perspectives compared to 63% of women. White men have the most positive view of industry progress in diversity , followed by Black men . Women were less impressed with forward movement, with 66% of white women, 50% of biracial women and 47% of Black women believing that Hollywood has made progress.
Hill urged the entertainment industry to step up on diversity and inclusion while holding"the unique potential to tell the stories of today’s richly diverse world. To get there, the barriers to underrepresented people being valued and in ‘the room where it happens’ must be eliminated. And once they do get into ‘the room where it happens,' they must not be the only one.
