ICYMI: Today was rAVe [TV], the completely unscripted TV show Gary and I came up with to talk about the goings-on in the industry that he and I care about.
Well, today, I brought up a topic near and dear to my heart: the misogyny that has yet to be wholly ousted from AV. I’m not going to lie to you; the industry has changed tremendously since I joined in 2016. But if we think there is no more room for change, we’re kidding ourselves. As Hope Roth eloquently writes in this tweet thread, women have to work twice as hard in AV to be taken half as seriously. This weighs on me as I feel the pressure of passing the CTS test on my first try, just in case it’s blamed on me being a girl if I don’t make the cut. It shouldn’t have to be like this. I’m tired of it being like this. So — to all my #AVtweeps, let’s think about things we can do to make our industry better instead of making it worse.
This is a jam-packed issue, and I hope you enjoy everything we’ve gathered. You can find everything (columns, product releases, industry updates, etc.) Gary and I discussed during today’s rAVe [TV] and so much more!
Later gators.
