Blacker has been expanding NBCU’s presence in multicultural communities since his first day at the company, developing Telemundo’s bilingual movie studio FLUENCY and leading first-of-their-kind partnership agreements with Hulu, Netflix and Amazon in the U.S. and globally. His forays into the digital, social and content development scenes have delivered huge successes, whether you’re talking about coverage of the FIFA World Cup or the launch of “LatinX Now!,” NBCU’s first bilingual multiplatform entertainment news program. “Wearing both my hats at NBCU… I have a front-row seat into how much things have improved to incorporate LGBTQ+ stories into media,” he says. “It is very motivating to see our capacity to evolve.”
