This cohort of BIPOC writers was hired to diversify their websites across various verticals. Among the 150 staff writers and employees that were made to let go from the company, most of them were women of colour, Asian, Latinx women and people from the LGBTQIA+ community.

In April, Netflix made headlines after losing a whopping 200,000 subscribers in the first quarter of this year.
