This is a frank discussion about the creative side of navigating our diverse landscape. Whitewashing. Representation. Writers and their identities are more central to the conversation than ever before. As creatives, we do not want to be limited to writing only our own experiences. As humans, we have an obligation to address the inequities in our industry and work towards equal representation. This panel will discuss the complex and nuanced questions of representation, responsibility, and creativity. In the end, it’s about making the best possible work, responsibly.
