Emmys Diversity Dilemma, Mindset of Latino Republicans, Interview with Costume Designers Sharen Davis, Michelle Cole

Brown & Black - A podcast by Jack Rico, Mike Sargent

We welcome award-winning costume designers Michelle Cole and Sharen Davis whom are both nominated for Primetime Emmys this year for Outstanding Costume Designing. But before Mike and Jack interview Michelle and Sharen, they discuss the mindset of Latino Republicans and Latinos for Trump, plus they're thoughts on the profusion of Blacks and women nominated against the backdrop of no Latinx nominated in any major category. Michelle Cole is nominated this year for Outstanding Contemporary Costumes for ABC’s Blackish. This is the 3rd year in a row that she’s nominated, and this is also her 7th overall Emmy nomination in her career. Sharen Davis is a two-time Academy Award and Emmy-nominated costume designer who is nominated this year for Outstanding Fantasy/Sci-Fi Costumes for the HBO’s Watchmen and already won as of the time of this recording. The power ladies discuss with Jack and Mike how they got into costume designing, differences designing wardrobe for a white character than it is for a Black character, the differences between fashion design and costume design, where they get their Inspirations from, and Sharen Davis's prescient design of face masks in ‘Watchmen’ before Covid-19.
