the recruiting "suggestion" was just a bit of semi-humor. The point, which remains, is that (based on some presumptions that I would be happy to have corrected) this board is overwhelmingly white (not surprising since that would align with theatre audience demographics in general and especially on Broadway).
Now to your question, yes we can and should have such discussions and, as you also say, we should also be mindful of how white privilege permeates our efforts to "crack" it. Logically, if we are to learn (and this is the essence of the #weseeyouWAT movement) we need to expand that discussion, not here but more broadly. |
