Exploration Weekly - December 4, 2020

Key takeaways include:

• Hiring and Job Creation: Diversity has to be a commitment at all levels, especially in management, in order for the music industry to improve. It has to be built into the infrastructure of the music industry for it to last.

• Intentionality: #BlackoutTuesday was the key to opening the door to conversations about diversity in many spaces, but representation is still an issue.

• Ownership: Ownership of record labels, of space like the National Museum of African American Music, and of space for Black creatives, is crucial for an equitable industry.

• Sustainable Opportunities: Creating sustainable and repeatable business opportunities and infrastructure for creators is necessary for representation and inclusivity to endure.
