Broadway Equity Initiative
A NEW DEAL FOR BROADWAY - EQUITY, DIVERSITY, INCLUSION, ACCESSIBILITY & BELONGING FOR THE THEATRICAL INDUSTRY. BLACK THEATRE UNITED WAS PROUD TO HOST THIS REMARKABLE AND HISTORIC COLLABORATION. IT IS AN IMPORTANT FIRST STEP TO REOPENING OUR INDUSTRY WITH A BRIGHT SPOTLIGHT FOCUSED ON DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION, ACCESSIBILITY, AND BELONGING FOR BLACK PROFESSIONALS IN THE ARTS. THOUGH ONE OF MANY INITIATIVES CREATED BY BLACK, BIPOC AND ALLIED ORGANIZATIONS SINCE THE DEATH OF GEORGE FLOYD, BTUS SUMMIT IS THE FIRST TO BRING TOGETHER ALL AREAS OF OUR INDUSTRY FROM THEATRE OWNERS, PRODUCERS, CREATIVES, CASTING AND UNIONS. WE ARE GRATEFUL TO ALL THOSE WHO HAVE WORKED DILIGENTLY WITH US. BTU WAS ABLE TO FINILIZE THE NEW DEAL, WHICH NOW HAS OVER 100 SIGNATORIES. THE CONTINUED IMPLEMENTATION OF THE NEW DEAL IS OVERSEEN BY BTU, COLLABORATORS KENJI YOSHINO AND DAVID GLASGOW FROM THE CENTER FOR DIVERSITY, INCLUSION, AND BELONGING AT NYU SCHOOL OF LAW AND A COMMITTEE OF NEW DEAL SIGNATORIES. A SUMMIT IS HELD EVERY YEAR FOR SIGNATORIES TO DISCUSS PROGRESS MADE OVER THE YEAR AND CHALLENGES FACED.
