Your favorite impromptu book club is BACK!

We’re continuing with Maureen Ryan’s book Burn It Down: Power, Complicity, and a Call for Change in Hollywood, where she lays out the many issues in Hollywood and how they have led to cycles of abuse and irreparable harm.This week, we covered chapters 3 and 4: tackling myths of value in the industry, as well as myths of nonconformity. Hollywood is home to undervalued staff and seems to close its doors to anyone who speaks out against unjust incidents. Tune in as we explore this topic deeper.

When we say we want to watch the world burn, we’re talking about Hollywood!

Yes, the very thing we love- even aspire to be apart of has problems, and we can acknowledge that. In Maureen Ryan's book Burn It Down: Power, Complicity, and a Call for Change in Hollywood, she lays out the many issues in Hollywood and how they have led to cycles of abuse and irreparable harm.

Over the next few weeks we will be discussing stories, structures, and notable figures in Hollywood that Ryan highlights in her book as examples of why things can not remain as they are. This week we tackled Chapter 1 and 2, so it’s not too late to catch up!
