The Cartt.ca Podcast: Hamlin Grange on how Canadian media must look within and fight racism
“PEOPLE LOOK AT the news and see Black and brown faces reading the news,” says Hamlin Grange, who used to do just that for a living.
It’s progress, but it’s far from good enough.
“That’s representation, not inclusion,” Grange told our Bill Roberts in a recent interview for the Cartt.ca Podcast. Without people of color in decision-making roles, or “power-broker” positions like executive producer, or higher up – and there are very few Black, Indigenous and people of colour in such jobs in Canadian media – the industry can’t claim to be making progress. So much remains to be done.
