Abstract:
The study looked to fill a gap in the existing literature on the subject of systemic racism in the screen industries. While most studies about diversity and inclusion in the industry examine the production chain and hiring practices, this study explored the informal vertical and horizontal networking opportunities, which can affect the trajectory of one’s career in film and television. Key words: Inclusive, Diversity, Social Justice, Networking, BIPOC, Film, TV
