    In the wake of the #oscarssowhite movement, the panel will discuss the erasure of POC talent at the oscars as a symptom of the larger issue of lack of diversity in hollywood and the media, and the effects of misrepresentation on the public. The panel will also tackle questions of intersectionality regarding gender, sexuality and ability.

    Panelists:
    Ephraim Walker – Consultant Producer, Fruitvale Station
    Cecil Brown – UC Berkeley African American Studies, Author
    Kim Nunley – Screenwriter
    Andrew Barlow – UC Berkeley Sociology
