Scenario

When creative collaborations struggle with cultural representation

Our theater group is creating a performance piece about global fool traditions, but we can't agree on whether we should cast people from those specific cultures or if that's tokenism, and the whole project has stalled while we debate authenticity versus accessibility.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen
