The Casting Society of America will host a town hall for Latino actors as part of its ongoing Commitment to Equity in Entertainment in Casting Initiative, which is designed “to effect concrete change in how actors in historically underrepresented communities are afforded access to job opportunities.” The town hall, titled ¡Mi Gente!
For Latine Actors and with sponsorship from SAG-AFTRA, will be held virtually December 7 at noon PT. Details here. In recent years, the CSA has held similar town halls for African Americans, Asian Pacific Islanders, Native Americans and military veterans.
