2023's The Color Purple movie adaptation brings a musical twist to the story, and viewers can watch it in theaters or at home on streaming later. https://t.co/uivoSA2CiX
This is the challenge I have with our people. In the end we overpay because we choose to go it alone. Imagine if Taraji could share her a world class team and agents with other actors who like her need representation. That’s essentially what CAA is but for white talent managers https://t.co/XT8YssCpc1

Taraji is right. The math never maths. I remember, years ago, being asked to take a lower compensation than a white woman for a board role because the white woman had years of experience on me. Only she had none of the regional experience that I had nor the operational chops.
“Ms. OPRAH has been nothing less than a steady & solid beacon of light to ALL OF THE CAST of The Color Purple! She has provided ENCOURAGEMENT, GUIDANCE & UNWAVERING SUPPORT to us all. She told me personally to reach out to her for ANYTHING I needed, and I did!” —Taraji P. Henson https://t.co/b855d3WxyC

Clearly I’m on one today, but what Taraji’s saying has me beyond triggered because imagine how much worse it is for your regular schmegular Black girl?! Corporate girlies. Freelance baddies. Doesn’t matter. We are consistently disrespected and underpaid! Enough is enough.
