Friends, trying to put a little thing together- Any mixed raced actors, not necessarily black/white, who can relate to; finding it hard to get seen or cast for their actual ethnic heritage, or feeling both not “white enough” or “brown/black enough” sometimes. Holla at me. Plz Rt

Something I’ve only just digested. Me & Sargon Yelda, also in Dead Pixels, are of Middle Eastern heritage. Why this is significant is this may be 1 of the first ever TV shows in UK history to have up front TWO actors of ME heritage, in roles where their identity isn’t a focus.

A thread I’d love you to read. Why the representation of Middle Eastern, NA, & Muslim people in TV/Film/Theatre is so important is because at the moment we are dehumanised. A dehumanisation in our media allows wars, invasions, genocides, colonisation & occupations to continue.

Amanda would only need do some basic research to find that our industry is the 4th biggest in the UK. Young people that want to train in say, production arts, have high employment prospects with 75% in work or managerial roles after 6months of graduating. Feels pretty real to me.

Actor colleagues, we don’t need anymore songs or poems to camera. People are worried about loved ones & income, it’s more than a bit of isolation for them. If you want to use your name for good do it to raise funds. If you already are then please ignore & keep up the great work!

The thinking is dangerous and simply false. We’re hearing it in the industry too with some agents telling friends I can’t get you in rooms because people are only looking for POC now. Year groups are still majoritively white middle-class & most pro stage and screen casts are too.

Great article @lyngardner . Just had a moment of reflection. When I entered the industry 10yrs ago I never thought I’d have any influence. Was told to change my accent. I needed to be this, or that. Too brown, too white. Patronized. A lot. Told @opendoorpeople would never work...

It can sometimes feel like there is little respect for acting anymore in TV because there is a lack of understanding from the powers that be (not CD’s) of what we do. Our job is often undermined by poor organisation by production. With time to prepare we will do a better job. 1/5

Favourite photo. A last meeting for those @opendoorpeople starting drama school in a couple of weeks. It’s been a pleasure working with them. I’m bloody proud of these warm, talented, funny people. All of them - whether they got in or not this year - they’re all brilliant humans!

The entitlement. Gained the same grades as the private schools kids. Oxford isn’t a private school you can pay for. 7% of the country go to private school. Till there’s below 7% of private school pupils at Oxford there really isn’t an issue here. Equality feeling like inequality.

The working-class get back to work with no precautionary or safety guidance, and the rest carry on working from home. Oh, and you lot can also now play frisbee in the park sucking on a Calippo, if you like?

Thank you if you’ve read this thread. If you have any questions just let me know. I’m aware that people may not even know this is an issue so sharing these thoughts in order to bring about further awareness would be much appreciated. Oh and #FreePalestine

Without meaning to use this as a therapeutic space, homophobia was a majority of my high school experience that I still think effects me somewhat today. “Faggot” and “homo” we’re terms I would hear daily, as well as physical aggression. Thank you @OwenJones84 for writing this💜

Talking about homophobia against straight men isn't a tasteless distraction. It's fundamental to understanding what homophobia actually is.

I think we can all agree these guys achieved something pretty special. None of us had to audition for drama school during a global pandemic. 72 young people who are currently studying across these institutions at the same time who went through the programme! Proud of all of them!
