mills. i am sorry, the president kept me up late with intersectionality. but look, there is something for me about this idea. in addition to like just me being jealous about the fact that colbert has 19 writers. but that it just you would look around the room and not notice that women and people of color are missing. right. i think part of why that happens is writing staffs are largely made up of people that that person has worked with or they know. so it seems like people keep hiring the same people. it is really hard to get your foot in the door with comedy writing. this is not a small point. right? you look at that image or hear these numbers. sounds like there is a conspiracy and everyone is sitting around at table deciding to keep the women and the blacks and browns out. but it is actually like just the culmination of all these little tiny individual decisions. they don t think about it. that s the problem. they don t think. people that occupy the mainstream we know that
