Why is it difficult to get Haitian actors to...

work with African American directors and writers.

I have posted several castings.

I have not received any response except from Jimmy Jean Louis ( I thank him for his consideration).

I need the French flavored Haitian accent for my project and the screenplay was written for a Haitian cast. I'm being cast off by American backers and Haitians alike.

It is uncomfortable to request to work with specific people and be pushed off. No, I'm not Steven Spielberg or Spike Lee but I am a good writer and I am an honest producer.

I would like to connect with the community to get this project done. There is not enough good work for actors of color, this is a good project.
