Why are Black women in reality TV held to a higher standard of accountability?

from Rooted

Rooted digs into reality TV accountability, revisiting America’s Next Top Model through a critical lens that centers Black women and power. Our panel unpacks the now‑iconic “We were all rooting for you!” moment, how a new documentary reframes Tyra Banks and the early‑2000s modeling industry, and what accountability looks like when those traditionally marginalized are positioned as gatekeepers.Subscribe to the Rooted YouTube channel:    •GBH News Rooted  Follow Rooted on InstagramListen to Rooted on SpotifyFollow Rooted on ThreadsFollow Rooted on TikTokSubscribe to the Rooted newsletter Support GBH and help shape a future where facts matter, stories unite us, and everyone has access to quality media.
