More Than One Hollywood Story

Featuring Lena Waithe, Founder, Hillman Grad and Rishi Rajani, CEO, Hillman Grad

While the push to diversify representation in Hollywood has made important gains, there’s still a temptation for industry executives to think of racial and ethnic groups as monoliths, rather than communities within communities. The Emmy Award–winning actor and creator behind The Chi, Master of None, and Ain’t No Mo’ is working with her business partner to change those perceptions and tell more authentic stories. They join us to discuss how they push past the obvious in storytelling and mentor the next generation of creative talent to do the same.
