TV and movie creators now have a new resource to showcase Latino talent without falling into stereotypes often seen in Hollywood. The National Hispanic Media Coalition (NHMC) in the U.S. released a guide called "Seeing Beyond The Stereotypes: Telling Authentic Latino/a/x/e Stories: A Guide for the Entertainment Industry." The document seeks to improve the representation of this demographic in series and films.
The guide analyzes the state of the Hollywood industry as it relates to the Latino community, debunks myths and stereotypes, defines popular terms, and features data on Latino culture and the power of Hispanic audiences for the entertainment industry.
