We are all different, in the sense that each of us is an individual. Let's not allow ourselves to be divided.]]> 2021-11-10 23:25:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882631342 https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882631991 seeing more diversity in the content

Change is scary, and being brave is important if we want to make our industry better. 

I feel more empowered to be vocal when I see something problematic. On the opposite side of that I'll be reminding myself that we live/work in a global community and to not be so US-centric in my thoughts. ]]> 2021-11-10 23:26:35 UTC https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882632170 fostering inclusivity and paying attention https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882632541 2021-11-10 23:26:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882632541 https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882633789 To me, lots of roads led back to maintaining diversity in our hiring practices, especially in regards to content makers and leadership positions, for authentic representation in our storytelling.]]> 2021-11-10 23:27:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882633789 Knowledge is power https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882636889 Real power comes from competence in your field. Education/training is the way to truly empower people from underrepresented backgrounds in animation.]]> 2021-11-10 23:30:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882636889 Thank you for empowering us to be courageous and even braver in the way we hold space for discussions about inclusivity at Netflix - in all facets of work here. Discussions on being more inclusive and moving forward progressive representation in our storytelling and leadership are conversations that should happen before a project goes into development, during development, production, all the phases of animation, and after! We need to keep talking and to keep learning. I believe I can, and I believe we can. https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882637064 2021-11-10 23:30:46 UTC https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882637064 Check yourself! https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882643244 One big takeaway from the sessions is to give time and patience to check biases (personal and industrial) when making decisions in the work that I do. In order to get better at what I want, which is to bring joy to as many people as possible through stories and animations! Thank you for all the great sessions!]]> 2021-11-10 23:36:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ellaij/laihxrvq2f2jdmbq/wish/1882643244
