Quinta Brunson has a truly just service to increasing variety on-screen.
“The key to more diversity in television is not just sticking characters into a white world,” the Abbott Elementary developer just recently informed Entertainment Weekly, “but actually green-lighting the stories that naturally bring those people to the forefront.”
With her ABC comedy, Quinta and the authors never ever set out to cast more individuals of color, including, “We were worried about being funny.”
As she discussed, the stories they wished to inform on Abbott were agent of neighborhoods throughout the nation. “If more shows like this are brought to the forefront and green-lit,” she stated, “we won’t even have to have those kinds of corny discussions anymore about, ‘Where’s the diversity in this thing?'”
Quinta offered the example of attempting to incorporate individuals of color into programs that are mainly white., “Honestly,” she stated, “do not stick me in Mrs Maisel I’d rather see a program that has to do with our individuals.”
