my experience when it comes to
disability being included in the conversation
about inclusivity has been that in
general it hasn't been
It's only recently that it's really start
to move the needle on me, you do a lot of
work with sag-aftra in issues around of diversity
and inclusivity and I got a say that the
performance of disability has done
phenomenal work in moving the needle
in getting this conversation happening in
the industry , its amazing how much energy
it takes to get that big old bolder role
in just an inch and they've done that
and it's starting to move now, it's
actually starting to role and people
have that in conversation cause-ahh-causepeople
I think what Iam most excited about right now
is that so many people are talking about
equality and inclusivity and they are
trying to make sure that nobody get's
left out and so when you point out
to somebody that you are leaving out
the 20% of the population they pay
attention, they wake up
and so that to me has been, I think it's
not been nearly as hard a converstion
as it would have been 10-15 years ago
people suddenly go, oh ! you are right
I haven't been thinking about that i have'nt
been including performance of the
disabilities in my projects, I haven't
been hiring writers with disabilities
I haven't been looking for producer
so the simple fact that is being pointed
out to them in a sometimes in the
shaming way but sometimes in the
this action will improve your bottom line
because people always wanna see themselves on camera
and this doesn't always either be the point
in fact sometimes it's most powerful win
