Why do so many "nice" "liberal" TV execs talk about diversity but do nothing to increase the employment & promotion of BAME, disabled, women and other diverse groups? Latest blog on how TV execs suffer from the "bystander effect" and how to solve it blackonwhitetv.blogspot.com/2019/08/the-by…

BAMEinTV @RaceColour Me: Hello. ****** ****** recommended I give you call because you're crewing up for your next series. A.P: Love your work. But all the slots are taken- ME: Writing or directing? A.P: Errr... Writing? ME: I'm a director. A.P: That too. I think. Erm. ME: Yeah?

When you’re in an office & there are two Bame people in the kitchen & a young white female comes in and says “look how you lot all come together, you’re always together” even though the whole office is white & we just so happen to be making tea in the kitchen at the same time…

Share your stories with us & we’ll tweet anonymously. We understand how the industry works & will never reveal your name, indie etc AND more importantly if someone does recognise they’re ignorance/racism/dickery, do you think they’ll come forward? #BAMEinTV

White Male Exec on meeting you for the first time: WhaTTa gwan? Every single black person in the TV industry:

Do these people ever listen to their selves? #BAMEinTV

*summer party at a well known production company - they’ve hired the silent disco headphones* White SP, VERY loudly - YOU LISTENING TO BIGGIE HUN?? *the “gangsta” signs weren’t helping. ME - nope, it’s Britney bitch

When they find out you live in Croydon “Ahhh, so what’s Stormzy like then?”

Stormzy represents every black person in the universe & knows everything about knife crime, drugs, durags, plaintain etc

Use the hashtag #bameintv or tweet BAMEinTV - To remain anonymous DM us some of the absolute crap you have to deal with just by being black, brown or caramel in TV. Don’t be shy…SHARE YOUR STORIES!

Colleague: I love your hair *goes to touch it…

When you hope it isn’t real but you know it is 😶

Loft Pro Cardiff have no shame!!! So you could say - This company demanded a £4200 deposit from my friends to secure a start date, told them they did not need planning, planning was needed and not granted, the company ignored emails…

Everyone gets to be successful Black women but Black women.

Please hire black writers. White people write about our hair like it’s a science project.

Having younger siblings/cousins is too funny. I get messages saying “ Hey I hope you’re okay can I have £76 please” ??????

The year is 2066. DBE have just dropped their 764th mixtape and have announced tour dates on Mars. Dave is now a poet and is being studied at GCSE. J Hus is somehow still 23. M Huncho has been exposed and is actually J Hus. Krept & Konan are expecting their 4th child.

Can someone please ask abt what happens to all that diversity folks are talking about BEHIND THE SCENES. Like, legit... where the hell is all that diversity in the production though homie? In the decision making ranks who control the fate of the diversity in front of the camera?

I love this song
