In this episode, progress vs. preservation. We discuss the alarming white backlash targeting Latino interns and how AI is impacting the film industry and creators of color. We explore how these two stories set the stage for a broader debate on diversity in the digital age.

The Smithsonian Latino Museum is being sued for its pro-Latino internship program designed to increase Latino representation. What other Latino programs are next? We discuss why they are the latest target in a growing wave of racial backlash. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/02/23/smithsonian-latino-diversity-lawsuit/

Tyler Perry paused an $800 million investment due to advancements in OpenAI's Sora, raising concerns that traditional creative jobs could become obsolete. If workforces of color are displaced by AI, could we be creating "the new poor," a new class of permanently unemployed? https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/tyler-perry-ai-alarm-1235833276/
