Approach
CIME brings together the 5A’s in a reinforcing circle of change that unites an interdisciplinary think tank with intersectional training & development.
We have created a multi-faceted holistic approach to advancing diversity and inclusion in the industry.
At the Center for Intersectional Media and Entertainment or CIME (pronounced SEE-ME) we believe Hollywood needs a new solution to its diversity problem.
We are here to Advance Representation.
80% of the media consumed worldwide comes from the United States.
It is our biggest export, but what are we exporting?
Do you like what you see on screen? Are YOU and your world represented?
The majority of people around the world would respond, "No." And they aren't wrong.
For decades studies have shown that we have HUGE gender/race disparity both on screen and in the workforce, both impacting each other.
What we see on screen impacts what we believe is possible, and who makes our media impacts what shows up on screen. This is a problem we can fix.
What is the cultural legacy we are leaving? Beyond the numbers, less documented are the narratives and tropes that haunt Hollywood's catalogue. CIME exposes these patterns and ensures that representative stories are told. This is our specialty.
We have created a multi-faceted holistic approach to advancing diversity and inclusion in the industry.
We hope you will join us.
