The fact that NETFLIX is progressive in picking up a show that features a historic Black culture gathering, with lead Black Actresses, and an all Black writers room, is impressive, but long overdue. Its simple, if you have a Black cast, you should also have a Black writing room. How can another race successfully speak for/write for a race that’s not their own?
