Representation matters but has there been progress? Nielsen's latest Diverse Intelligence Series report shows diversity on-screen at an all-time high across cable, broadcast, and streaming platforms. Yet the report ("Being Seen on Screen: The Importance of Quantity and Quality Representation on TV") also finds a quarter of viewers surveyed say that representation is inaccurate.
Nielsen SVP Stacie de Armas and tick, tick...BOOM! actor Robin de Jesús join The Revolución cohosts Kathryn Garcia Castro, Diego Lastra, and Court Stroud for a spirited discussion about the new study's findings. The conversation ranges from what's happening on the ground in media and entertainment to the difference between AfroLatinidad and colorism to how "gay white men can also be colonizers."
