Another call for Hollywood diversity
Expect to hear more discontent about the lack of diversity in the movies.
Here’s my gripe: I am a proud member of the third-largest minority group in America. I am disabled, or a “transcender” — a term I like better. We are rarely depicted in the media, and when we are, roles often are given to able-bodied folks. We, too, have interesting stories to celebrate.
Come on, Hollywood, let’s hear and see us.
