Ruth Negga opens up about diversity in Hollywood

Ruth Negga has voiced her opinion on diversity in Hollywood.

The Ethiopian-Irish actress has spoken about her frustration with people assuming that Hollywood is equal to all ethnicities.

The Preacher actress also stated that ‘diversity of opinion’ between actors of different ethnicities is not recognised within the industry.

“I mean if you’re a brown woman, it doesn’t mean you have the same thoughts as another brown woman. Of course it doesn’t! It’s damaging and diminishing. We have to ask different questions.”

The actress has starred in popular productions such as Breakfast on Pluto, Misfits and World War Z.
