S2E7: Screenwriting, Storytelling, and Diversity with Ciku Wathika
<p>In this podcast episode, Ismelka invites Ciku Wathika, a pop culture and screenwriting enthusiast. They discuss the current state of screenwriting and storytelling and what true diversity representation can be on TV. </p> <p>With the rise of streaming platforms, they’re seeing a wider variety of reboots and interesting shows aimed at very specific audiences. They also talk about the significant strides in terms of diversity on TV (being a black woman or PoC woman on TV is the ultimate double-edged sword for representation), while acknowledging there is a long way to go. </p> <p>Finally, they end up discussing that in order to create authentic and engaging content, writers and producers must continue to push for diverse perspectives in the writers' room and on-screen representation. However, we must also avoid forced narratives. Screenwriting is evolving, and there's a growing demand for shows that reflect our current cultural climate, but it's important to remember that what's being produced may not necessarily be what different audiences want.</p> <p>Keep up with Ciku via her Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/cikuwathika" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">@cikuwathika</a>.
