The Scribe Tribe Episode 27

What's up, Scribe Tribe! This week, Mike, Rob, and Skylar talk about the complexities of writing Black characters while Hollywood (and America-at-large) seems to be in a DEI backlash against anything even pretending to be inclusive. They'll also break down the week's top entertainment news, including:

  • Captain America: Brave New World receives mixed reviews
  • Are audiences hating on Anthony Mackee for being the Black Cap?
  • Amazon/MGM taking creative control over the James Bond franchise 

Buckle up and enjoy the ride! Because you’re tuned in to The Scribe Tribe! #AlwaysBeCreating (ABC)
