Given Hollywood's current trends with diverse shows (cancelling them for no reason after one season, claiming no viewership even when it's not true, barely including the lgbtq+ characters they already have, etc.), I wouldn't be surprised if the election caused/made them feel comfortable enough to do even more of that. It's a sad reality, and I most certainly hope I am proven wrong.

I would like to see more of Astead Herndon on tv. He learned a lot interviewing all types of voters across the US on his The Run-Up podcast. His insights are very credible.

But mainstream Hollywood absolutely has to be willing to because the win the fight, the majority has to show that they’re not for returning 4 decades in the past
