Issa Rae says she doesn’t feels successful right now. Did the industry switch up on black content?

She is big enough to survive but I also feel as if she is speaking for bourgeoning Black creatives trying to get a foot in the door.
TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?
I walk around a little edgy already
Wait till Tone Talks sees this…
People forget that entertainment is not a vital or essential component of a basic functioning society but merely one rich and decadent enough to sustain it. That we have so much entertainment is a privilege.
He pioneered the concept of the decadent veil and the overreliance of Black prosperity on modern entertainment
I mean knowing nothing about the game, it seems that you have to stay active more on relationships so it leads to the creation. Ie kevin hart
Only soo many minority names at the same time and with trump going after any institution ridiculing him or doing any semblance of diversification, it seems these execs arent risking it as much as before.
She had a great run. She cant lament her success. But its the entertainment industry. They all should know how it works.

Creativity goes a long way. Jordan Peele got a 2nd career basically because he did something nobody else was doing at the time. Everything I see now is somebody trying to do slapstick c00nery like Tyler Perry or peddle lgbt smut like that fakkit Lena Waithe
Another thing that might have secretly affected her
“I’m rooting for everybody black”
And that insecure doc showing that it wasn’t just the main cast, but the behind the scenes people were black too.
The Powers to be (sans Tyler Perry) are Still white.

Issa Rae is one of those names that I only hear of here and only here. Same for Ari Lennox and Amara La Negra.
