In this week's #blkwmnanimator episode, I sit down with Kemp Powers. From his roots as a journalist to his career as a playwright and the creative force behind Pixar's "Soul," Kemp's journey is nothing short of extraordinary. Join us as we explore the nuanced transitions that led him from the realm of journalism to a prominent role in animation, unraveling the threads of his creative evolution.


Additionally, Kemp's passion for telling Black stories and advocating for Black creatives emerges as a central theme, adding a profound layer to the discussion. His dedication to amplifying underrepresented voices in the industry serves as an inspiration for aspiring Black creatives.
