Abstract:
In January 1977, the Human Resources Development Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) endorsed the formulation of the Task Force on Minorities in Public Broadcasting. The purpose of the Task Force was to assist the CPB Board of Directors in the development of policies that will maximize the growth, development, employment and participation of minorities in all aspects of public broadcasting.
This document, A Formula for Change, is the result of 18 months of deliberations by the Minority Task Force in direct response to that charge. The report establishes a precedent. It represents the first time a diversity of minority Americans have come to a consensus about the barriers to their full participation in public broadcasting and have attempted to identify ways by which to overcome them.
