“Like many in our industry, we’ve been waiting for today’s announcement in the hope that you would acknowledge the breadth of issues facing the HFPA and provide a clear roadmap for change,” Sarandos wrote. But the HFPA plan’s timetable — growing the organization by 50 percent over the next 18 months — was unacceptable to him, he wrote, “So we’re stopping any activities with your organization until more meaningful changes are made.

Sarandos’ missive also suggested that the HFPA needs to provide more specifics about not just the organization’s plans to its demographic shortcomings, but also its rules and regulations pertaining to campaigning. A concern of some talent that works with Netflix — including— has been the fact that the HFPA asks for talent to participate in HFPA-specific press conferences, but that press conferences involving Black talent are often poorly attended.

You recruit qualified people!! Not people because they’re black! How could a black person even feel comfortable with this knowing they are only getting a job out of pity and to fill a quota. Really disgusting! Any self respecting black person wouldnt want this.
