Harvard Business School alum Brickson Diamond co-founded the Blackhouse Foundation in Los Angeles, California, with the goal of educating and promoting Black writers, producers, directors, and executives. In the past 13 years they’ve taken steps to support Black filmmakers at festivals, host events to connect them with financiers, and design fellowships that give creators the skills they need to succeed.⠀ ⠀ “In 2007 there were seven black films at Sundance,” Diamond said. “In January 2019 there were 46 films, VR projects, and episodic projects.”⠀ ⠀ #HarvardServes #California #LosAngeles⠀ ⠀ Photo: Stephanie Mitchell/Harvard Staff Photographer
