“In the wake of the racial justice uprisings of 2020, we saw an outpouring of equity and diversity commitments from Hollywood. Our goal with Beyond the Screen is to inspire young women and nonbinary people of color to see themselves as tomorrow’s producers and distributors, while also modeling for other studios, networks, and production companies the praxis of creating meaningful pipelines for underrepresented communities” said Malakai, CEO and founder of Made in Her Image.
