Hollywood Blackout: Racism In Hollywood (1996)
This 1996 Nightline news report, titled “Hollywood Blackout,” examines the systemic lack of racial diversity in the film industry, often referred to as an “institutionalized glass ceiling.” Hosted by Jeff Greenfield, the program investigates the significant underrepresentation of Black professionals behind the camera—specifically directors, writers, and technical crew—and the industry’s slow progress despite the commercial success of Black-led films.
