THREAD:

#HeyDionne I’m thrilled you started this discussion. As someone working in D&I for 15 years & as a racialized, LGBTQ+ person with a disability myself, 2020 has illuminated & reinforced many lessons I’ll never ever forget. I share here some of the lessons I’ve learned: Diversity alone cannot be the starting point. It must be about inclusion. If the world includes us all, then our companies, governments, films, music and industries must do the same. It’s not about adding to existing structures, it’s about reimagining & building anew. #HeyDionne

THREAD:

“What happened is that we don’t vote by gender. We vote by film and accomplishment.” - President, HFPA

This statement today by the head of the HFPA on the #GoldenGlobes and the lack of female nominees in the Best Director category makes me want to scream. Out loud. This statement is the epitome of the biggest myth and misconception around diversity and inclusion: that diversity and inclusion is at the expense of merit and excellence.

Let me be clear: it is not.

Once more with feeling: It is not. #GoldenGlobes
