Feb. 27, 2021, 4:20 AM UTCStars like Sterling K. Brown and Kerry Washington are speaking up about the lack of diversity in the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's ranks, namely the fact that the organization does not currently have a single Black member.

Ellen Barkin asked,"What price HFPA?" in her post. Rashida Jones took to her Instagram story, adding,"Representation Matters. A cosmetic fix isn't gonna cut it," while Amber Tamblyn wrote,"How far have we come, you ask? Not far enough.
