ACX was founded on the mission of democratizing audiobook publishing for all, and the belief that every story deserves the chance to be heard. Even in an industry like independent audiobook publishing, where the focus is on vocal performance and creating your own success, the playing field isn’t always even. Unconscious and implicit bias can impact a creator’s career journey and opportunities for success.
In this panel, five creators from a variety of backgrounds share their experiences with effective and ineffective allyship.
We’re joined by:
• Tyrrell Harrell & Jocqueline Protho, two industry professionals with experience leading discussions on bias in the audiobook industry
• Eboni Flowers, an experienced narrator who shares about her own experiences navigating bias in the audiobook industry
• Crystal Perkins & Kathryn Nolan, two authors who are making conscious efforts to be allies in their communities, discuss meaningful engagement and active advocacy
Learn how you can turn good intentions into impactful actions to help democratize representation, casting, and publicity, in this important episode.
