ABOUT THIS PODCAST
The concept of "Race" plays an active role in the entertainment we consume today and in our film and television of the past. This episode reveals racism’s role in the invention of stereotypes (00:33), and its ability to deny real-life voices of their accurate portrayal in the stories we tell (04:18). Special guest Liberating Race Producer Amy Kersten joins Aliah MaJon, Gillian Shelley, and Joy Donnell to explore anti-racism in casting and storytelling.
