Quotable

“History and A&E have already greenlighted several projects that speak to more diverse communities, but we’re really doing this on a multi-tiered level. Obviously, there’s what everyone sees—which is who’s on camera and the subject matter you’re doing, but for us it’s going much deeper than that and we really are committed to changing our company itself and bringing more diverse voices to our workforce. But we’re also expecting that from our production partners… We are really valuing and sort of demanding that our producers diversify their teams because that is what we want to see in our production partners. If you’re going to have content that resonates authentically with diverse communities, you have to have diverse makers.”
– A+E Networks programming president Rob Sharenow at Realscreen Summit
