The Not So Silver Screen: Black Women in Media
with Diahann Carroll 

The widespread coverage of race and gender inequality in Hollywood often excludes Black women. The wage gap for Black women in the entertainment industry is a symptom of a larger issue: the invisibility and devaluing of Black women in media culture as performers, producers, and directors. 

Co-presented with the Hammer Museum as part of AAPF's third annual Her Dream Deferred, this conversation explores the erasure of Black women in the media as well as solutions to promote them as creators and leaders.

Moderated by by Kimberlé Crenshaw and featuring Diahann Carroll, LisaGay Hamilton, Tonya Pinkins, Tracy "Twinkie" Bird, Gina Prince-Blythewood, April Reign and Kristen Warner.
