From a crop of diversely cast shows like Woke, Little Fires Everywhere, and Ramy, to the Academy Award's response to #OscarsSoWhite, a lot is shifting when it comes to BIPOC representation on screen. Does Hollywood finally have the solution to fixing the disparities in the industry? Then, actor/producer/writer X Mayo (The Daily Show, The Farewell, Strangers) joins Afsheen to help make sense of the industry.

X shares whether or not her 2020 dream collab happened or not.
