Research involving 30,000 people also highlights lack of senior roles for people of colour
Fewer than 2% of writers working in British TV identify as black, according to a major survey of industry diversity that also revealed a dearth of senior positions for people of colour.
The Creative Diversity Network’s (CDN) survey of 30,000 respondents shows that within the world of British TV people of colour are still vastly underrepresented in decision-making roles and in key creative positions – such as writing rooms.
