"Yvonne Orji Is Living Her Life Like It's Golden" - Www.BellaNaijaStyle.Com

According to: 
 
 
 
 
 
"Being the only woman of colour on the cover, she talked about diversity especially in the movie industry:
 
 
A lot of times it’s like, ‘OK, we have to cast a person of color.’

Then you read the role and it’s not written for a person of color, they just took a character [at random].

So then [you have to ask], do you have a person of color in the writer’s room?

Someone who can say, ‘Hey, in real life, this person would actually say this.’

And the hair and makeup [artists], have they done hair and makeup for a person of color?

The important conversation to have around diversity is [that it’s] not just the face that you see."
