As Netflix, Amazon Boycott HFPA, Could the Golden Globes Get Canceled?

The response from activist groups as well as top Hollywood companies like Netflix and Amazon? Not enough. Too slow. Awfully vague. Also Read: Time’s Up dismissed the reform plan as “sorely lacking and hardly transformational.” The group of 100 public relations firms that launched a boycott of the group by its clients rejected the plan as too slow to impact the 2022 Golden Globes and suggested that the awards should be pushed by a year “so that new members do not remain in the minority for another year.” GLAAD said the reforms “do not go far enough.” Only the National Association of Black Journalists, nominally the group most directly affected by the change since this move to boycott stemmed from the group’s lack of Black members, said it was “encouraged” by the plan. 

Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, and more slam HFPA amid Golden Globes reform process

Daily Times May 10, 2021 Hollywood is increasingly coalescing behind a clear message to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, demanding more significant reforms from the body that awards the Golden Globes each year. The HFPA approved a slate of changes on Thursday intended to address months of controversy over the lack of diversity in its ranks. According to a statement, the planned reforms include increasing the HFPA’s membership by 50 percent over the next 18 months, “with a specific focus on recruiting Black members” (the body currently has none); hiring a diversity, equality, and inclusion strategist; and establishing a committee of “racially and ethnically diverse members who will advise the Board and oversee critical organizational reform.” But many high-profile Hollywood figures have already come forward criticizing these measures, arguing that more substantive change is needed.
