well ... in other news, Netflix and the Obamas are having "advanced" production talks

QuoteAfter scooping up Shonda Rhimes and Ryan Murphy, two of the biggest powerhouse television producers in the industry?as well as others like the Coen brothers and David Letterman?it felt safe to assume Netflix?s talent-snatching spree might be over. I mean, who else was even out there to get? Well, how about the Obamas?

On Thursday night, The New York Times reported that Barack and Michelle Obama are in ?advanced negotiations? with Netflix to produce a series of shows for the streamer.

Speaking of which I think Issa Rae should take her product to Netflix. I can only imagine how edgy it would be.

Netflix produces amazing and thought provoking content, I wish they would employ more black executives but I think they are by far the most progressive of all the networks period.

I wanted Monique to get paid more than 500k, but I simply don't think these issues are the same or related.

Love us forreal, but we mustn't keep desensitizing the world to the word racism with frivilous claims of it.

Minorities... regardless of whatever opportunities they get... will continue to be paid less than their white counterparts...
Ya'll keep THAT in mind as you continue on with your narratives.
Good day.

here's a page on the Netflix website where they are promoting diverisity and stating their goal

https://jobs.netflix.com/diversity

QuoteInclusion & Diversity
In the last decade, Netflix has been building the world?s leading internet TV network, offering great films and series from all over the world to members of all ages and tastes everywhere.

To achieve this we?ve assembled a high caliber team to create the cutting edge technology required to stream over 125 million hours a day globally as well as to push the boundaries of storytelling through a growing slate of original films, series, documentaries, and performances.

To move this fast to delight ?our 100 million + members around the world, Netflix relies on debate, candor, and diversity of thought. As we grow globally, we are looking for candidates from a wide range of perspectives and backgrounds to join the team and help us build an internet TV network.

IT TAKES DIVERSITY OF THOUGHT, CULTURE, BACKGROUND, AND PERSPECTIVE TO CREATE A TRULY GLOBAL INTERNET TV NETWORK.

While the conversation around these topics tend to usually focus on diversity as the solution to all problems, we realize that inclusion plays just as much of an important role, if not more. We believe we have to work from the inside out where if we create a space where all employees and all voices are heard, understood, and appreciated - great work will happen.

I'm very impressed tbh, this is trendsetting hoping other companies follow suit

QuoteAva DuVernay on Why Netflix Understands Artists and Diversity

Ava DuVernay: Netflix reached out to me with an offer that I?d never heard before. Come and make what you?d like to make. We?d like to work with you as an artist, and we?ll support you in that vision. That sounded a little too good to be true. I was attracted by the prospects of a fraction of it. What I ended up getting was so much more.

It truly is a safe, productive artist space. Helping hands is what the creative experience is like. I was able to go off and do my thing. That all comes from Ted Sarandos, because he?s created an environment where all the executives feel so confident they don?t have to hold on to everything so tightly. Their notes are very normal ? not like studio notes. They are not prescriptive. I never got a note that said, ?Fix this.? This is the first place I ever went to where somebody said: ?Gosh, I love this. Don?t you want to do more?? I don?t have the money for that. ?Oh, we?ll give you some more money.? What kind of place is this?!

A black person could have never heard of an offer that's STILL 'LOWER' than what non-minority would get...

Monique gets proven right as the days goes on  :plzstop:

Aside from Mo'Nique, I'll just wait until more comes to light.
Minorities are not getting paid the same amount as their white counterparts.

No matter how many opportunities they are given... or how much diversity/content is being offered.
Sorry.

And that's the real issue.
