Matt Damon Tells Effie Brown, Black Woman, About Diversity
Matt Damon Tells Effie Brown, Black Woman, About Diversity - Video
Matt Damon tells Effie Brown about diversity and sticks his foot in his mouth. On "Project Greenlight" Damon basically told Effie Brown that diversity behind the camera didn't matter. Brown was trying to say that a room full of white male producers should be aware of bring in black directors who would be more sensitive to how to do a movie that involves people of color and yet does not do any kind of scene that is racist. But Matt had to open his mouth and say "When we are talking about diversity you do it in the casting of the film in front of the camera not in the casting of the show behind the camera." That was horrible. But I am glad Matt Ade a stupid comment like that because it brought the issue of Hollywood's lack of diversity into the spotlight like never before.
