Brown Box commits to hiring BIPOC administrators for our literary departments and implementing systems that enable the investment in a multiplicity of cultures and calling out the internal biases of our current administrators.
Brown Box’s Literary Department is currently made up of one person. In our next literary hire, we commit to hiring a BIPOC candidate, either as an addition when funds become available, or as a replacement for the current role. Until that time, we are taking various steps to check our own internal biases and blind spots.
Our inclusion of diverse stories has historically been severely lacking. Moving forward we are committed to including at least one play by a BIPOC playwright in each season, effective immediately.
Plays by BIPOC authors submitted for consideration in season planning now outnumber plays by white authors by two to one.
We have revamped our selection process to include anonymous feedback forms, allowing any dissent to be voiced without hesitation.
