Spike Lee talked about it,David Simon (who is white but usually forces on race) who wrote the wire talked about how he only allowed to go to far with some of the race so not offend the white audaince members and I believe issa rea had similar issues getting her show made until it was on HBO because most studios were willing to make unless changes were made.
If I'm including ones that started production but were never made the Danny glover haitian revolution movie is a really interesting thing to read about.

I've enjoy listening to interviews with creatives behind the scenes who talked about compromises they had to make on certain subjects that are much more widespread now my point is he didn't have an opinion on it ten years ago.

So you can open a discussion with moaning about things being woke but if you respond to that you are the one showing bais.

Why are replying to me and not the person I'm responding to who originally put the topic ofcourse.But my point is when it comes creative control this idea of no studio oversight has never existed the only thing that changed are factors that they care and don't care about.

Despite all the complaining about the "Woke era" you until relatively recent most minorities creatives are the ones who had walk on eggshells to not offended the studio.When you talk about honestly who are we talking about here because I feel what you describing is the fact if you not a guaranteed blockbuster you'll get taking out of cinema after three weeks.

I gave you an example from each decade and one of them is a white guy who had almost no black people critique his work negatively (although that's mostly because he's from a journalism background so he actually knows how to research properly).
I also don't think you understand what we're talking about I'm talking about writers and directors not actors.
