Coming Soon!: CaribbeanTales International Film Festival

Caribana may have finished, but in Toronto, the celebration of Caribbean culture isn’t over. The city is home to CaribbeanTales, an organization devoted to sharing stories from people of the Caribbean diaspora.

Dear Hollywood:

Dear Hollywood: When we look in the mirror, we expect an accurate reflection. Love, Inclusion

Ghost in…The HELL!?!

If ever I needed proof that Hollywood doesn’t understand audiences, this is it. This video has to be one of the most condescending things I’ve ever seen in my life. Every statement was…I don’t know.
