'Just as the racial wealth gap is constraining the U.S. economy, the film and TV industry will continue to leave money on the table if it fails to advance...

Hollywood may be missing out on billions in potential revenue by failing to tackle its deep-rooted racial inequities, a new McKinsey & Company analysis says.

The report, while acknowledging that the industry had made some headway in recent years with on-screen representation and diversity-and-inclusion efforts, also sounded a familiar alarm about Black representation and the limited scope of opportunity afforded to up-and-coming Black talent. — McKinsey report McKinsey found “mixed progress” on the television front, with Black actors making up 11.6% of leads on broadcast shows, 14% of leads on cable shows, and under 5% of streaming show leads in 2019. Just 5% of all showrunners are Black.

White, upper-class social networks A mix of financial constraints; industry reliance on largely white, upper-class extended networks for circulating job opportunities; and industry gatekeepers’ racial bias keeps Black talent from breaking into Hollywood, the report found.

Point that finger at the Chinese, they own Hollywood.

We always knew. McKinsey just provided the data for those incapable of critical thought on their own

There's many people wondering how you knew with more than 30 minutes (arguably 14h) in advance, how $gme and $amc had simultaneously dropped by more than 40% the other day. wmwitkowski For those who don't know about this, I suggest you stop taking advices from these crooks.

This analysis is complete garbage.

Talent has a colour other than just B&W. This is a missed point! Diversity is a misused word. Hollywood
