Brie Larson, Oscar-winner and star of the upcoming film Captain Marvel, turned heads at the recent Women in Film awards for her speech drawing attention to the lack of diverse film critics and journalists.
Representation matters in the entire entertainment industry—not just on set.
Larson took to Twitter to reiterate her message...
...which was praised by many other prominent diverse filmmakers.
Larson was even kind enough to offer step-by-step instructions on how to improve the situation.
It's time for a change.
Many praised the risk Larson took by speaking up in this way.
And it seems some large organizations are taking notice...albeit slowly.
There's definitely a long way to go...
But it seems we're on our way!
