Diversifying the Entertainment Industry

Posted by birukti on

This article talks about Howard University and Amazon Studio’s program called Howard Entertainment that will give African American, Latinx and Native American students a chance to study and train alongside entertainment executives. it seems like a great experience that will offer Howard students a unique interdisciplinary curriculum, coupled with hands-on work experiences and networking with Amazon’s industry partners. It’s exciting to see a HBCU working with an industry leader and helping to funnel minorities into these fields.

    It is a really cool move for amazon to seek out minorities to work with, and Howard is a really good school. What do you think beyond being excited? This is digging into huge ideas of access and representation. What are your thoughts about that?
