It is already working, because it has people like us having healthy debate on the issue... and if it is true that the public dollars dictate what movie gets made or not made based on where we spend our box office dollars... then the public need to be aware of the issue... not just the executives in the offices.

Hollywood execs have far more power that Jada and Spike. They wont do anything if they dont want to. This debate has been about since Halle Berry won her Oscar, a full 15 years ago, and made it public knowledge she was the first black woman to do so. Not much has changed since then.
