But that wasn't the question they were being asked. It was specifically, how do they as filmmakers avoid it. They're doing exactly what people want by being more ethnically and culturally sensitive and explaining how they got to that point, and getting shit on for it.
do they want a gold star or what?
you're supposed to do that shit because its the right thing to do, not so people will fellate you about how great you are at presenting not-completely-racist material
also, that doesn't at all address the fundamental point about how myopic it is to have that discussion without anyone who isn't a greying white guy present

They're not asking to be fellated.
They were asked what they're doing to avoid doing what white dudes have been accused of in the past.
They answered "This is what we've been doing" with a bunch of examples showing that they're getting it.
The whole point was that all of them have recently made movies about race, gender and culture that didn't come off as a fucking minstrel show. It wasn't to air grievances about a hundred years of evil white male moviemakers. You want people to try hard at not being dicks, don't shit all over them when they try.
At my current job I am also sometimes told to use method "x" to analyze the data, but there is no pretense that I also have control over the scientific direction of the projects for which my analysis is so narrowly dictated, plus I'm paid well to do it and people are not assholes about the results.

Today's catering is Make Your Own Fajitas. Today is a good day.
PhD comics is generally not funny; this one, while also not funny, captures the main problem I had with grad school.
Heh. I once made some comic strips that was basically "Dilbert, but with med students" (which is basically what this comic is, but for PhD students). It was horrible, and I wish I could bury it forever in the vault where they have the Ark of the Covenant, never to be seen again.

I guess for me it depends on what the point of that interview is.
If it's just a general question of how they, as show runners, work to ensure that minorities and other cultural groups are represented well, then it's fine to have them as they are show runners.
Of course the answer would be hire a talented and diverse cast and crew (and listen to them), so it'll be a really short panel.
clint eastwood, as terrible an example of a person as he can be at his worst, is actually really good at this thing
and then he doesn't go off and hot dog about what a not-racist he is afterwards, because expecting a big pat on the back afterward kind of defeats the point

There are a lot of like, humor channels/comics/blogs for doctors, and sometimes I just have to tell my husband that I don't want to watch some youtube video of a guy rapping about the ER, ok? Just, no.

There are a lot of shortcuts in college I wish I'd known before I started. Ways to shit out a 10 page sourced research paper in 2 hours, and get an A or B on it.
Don't front load your classes because that is hard as fuck, for no good reason.
There is a lot of things I'd have done differently.

Oh and I met with my mentor today and he is totally on board with my path towards project management, and specifically wants to pair me up with people who are super-technical but some combination of [bad writer/scattered/cannot logically break down complex task into sub-tasks/cannot effectively communicate]. He thinks I'm organized! I'm...not, and I said that, but I do have what I guess I would call an organized mind, in that I can analyze and lay out stuff--including tasks for people to do to make a program happen--logically.

I just had a meeting with Couch, the professor who is letting me take his class without actually attending, and I asked for his animation history course syllabus (he doesn't teach it any more but I just wanted the info to study on my own), and instead he wants me to take another class he's doing but ACTUALLY be doing history of Animation as like a.. secret independent study
And then as the final project for that class help him do research about Popeye and Betty Boop for something he's writing
Also I FINALLY got my midterm back from him and it's covered in A's again
