Without getting into the thick of things, I had 2 separate features planned for you all this week and, for reasons beyond my control, both of them fell through last minute. I have some big meetings this week so I wasn’t able to write another article as a backup to my backup so, unfortunately, all I have to offer you all this week is a digital hug and a video that the HTA OGs might remember from 2022.
If you need a good laugh, check out this video I made with my bestie about one of the many issues in the casting world for Black women: constantly getting auditions for nameless slaves. Is this skit “politically correct”? Idk. Does it make me laugh? Regularly. Does it resonate with the experience of every Black woman actor I know? 1000% yes.
Tomorrow I’ll be brainstorming some ideas for my upcoming trip to Istanbul and I’d love for you all to share your thoughts with me!
Until then :)
