The Power of Being Seen.
The Fight to Stay Visible.
Representation isn’t a trend. It’s a necessity. This section centers the voices so often erased, exoticized, or excluded in mainstream media, from AANHPI and Latinx to Indigenous, Black, LGBTQIA+ and women’s stories.
This is where identity meets storytelling and where visibility becomes resistance.
Black Stories
From resistance to renaissance, these stories celebrate Black excellence, call out erasure, and spotlight the cultural forces reshaping media from the ground up.
Latinx Stories
Whether reclaiming roots or confronting cultural silencing, these stories reflect the richness, resilience, and range of Latinx identity in Hollywood and beyond.
Indigenous Stories
We’re not relics—we’re storytellers. These posts elevate Native voices, dismantle stereotypes, and honor ancestral power in modern media.
AANHPI+ Stories
From Asian American directors to Pacific Islander fashion icons, these stories fight invisibility and celebrate the nuance of AANHPI brilliance.
LGBTQIA+ Stories
Queer stories deserve more than Pride month. These pieces spotlight LGBTQIA+ creatives, characters, history and the beauty of existing loudly..
Women’s Stories
Not just “female leads.” These stories reclaim agency, dismantle Hollywood tropes and highlight the women changing the industry on and off screen.
