Roadmap Writers is proud to present our 5th Annual Black to the Future event: a week-long celebration of inclusion and representation for Black Screenwriters, featuring four days of panels with working Screenwriters and Execs!

Roadmap has consistently held space for Black Screenwriters since our company’s founding in 2016 when we launched our free Coletta Preacely-Garcia Diversity Fellowship, which kicks off again on February 23rd. Through our programs and introductions, we are committed to increasing opportunities for writers of color to find a path to success and have helped many writers from this Diversity Fellowship land representation and get staffed. 

In its fifth year, Black To The Future is an extension of our commitment to supported and sustained diversity in the world of entertainment. We look forward to finding even more fresh new voices this year!
