The Geena Davis Institute is dedicated to fostering diversity and inclusion in media and entertainment. We believe in the power of storytelling to shape perceptions and challenge norms, especially regarding the LGBTQIA+ community, a vibrant mosaic of identities each with its own story.
We are proud to support the Think Tank for Inclusion and Equity (TTIE) and share their collection of resources aimed at guiding content creators in crafting authentic LGBTQIA+ narratives. These guides, developed by TTIE, serve as vital tools for writers and creators seeking to explore the complexities of LGBTQIA+ characters and themes with integrity and depth.
The Impact of Casting and Representation
The portrayal of LGBTQIA+ stories has a profound effect on audience perceptions and cultural understanding. We encourage creators to consider the impact of their casting choices and to consult with expert organizations, including TTIE, to navigate the nuances of representation thoughtfully and respectfully.
