The Roll Out Live with Linsay Rousseau

Linsay Rousseau (Netflix's Transformers: War for Cybertron, DEATHLOOP, Fallout 76) and Genevieve Marie (Genevieve MarieCosplay), hosts of the weekly geek talk show, The Roll Out, on YouTube, are coming to you live for a special AVOX edition of their show. For this panel, we're taking a deep dive into what it will take for women and female identifying people to be equally represented in geek entertainment - including video games, film, tv, animation, tabletop gaming, comics and more. While a lot of progress has been made over the past decade, we are still far from having equal representation in geek entertainment and female Twitch streamers continue to be plagued by harassment and abuse. As the success of films such as Black Widow and games such as Horizon Zero Dawn and Lara Croft show, female led titles can be successful and profitable. But they are still few and far between and face constant push back from video game publishers and entertainment execs. And a discussion about female equality can't be complete without also discussing queer representation and racial and ethnic diversity in geek culture.
