We implore all major media houses; theatre, film & tv production companies; advertising companies; major brands; casting directors & broadcast organisations to end endemic racism in the industry! We want to see more equal representation of BME people within all forms of media!
Why is this important?
BME people are significantly under represented in all forms of media, even though 1 in 6 people are of an ethnic minority in the UK. The endemic racism that exists in the TV, fashion, film, theatre, media & advertising sectors has been tolerated for too long & things have to change. Please sign this petition to ask the media & creative industry to stamp out racism & rethink its use & portrayal of BME people!
