#11 - "Dismantling the Gods of Hollywood’’ with Naomi McDougall Jones May 18, 2020

In this interview with actor, screenwriter, author, activist and 51Fund co-founder Naomi McDougall Jones, we discuss the relationship between off- and on-screen representation, and why now, more than ever, is the time to build a system that makes sure all stories get told -- to equal monetary benefit.
