Diversity in Christmas movies improves

Times are changing and so should movies along with that, some films like 'Single All the Way' and 'A Holiday in Harlem' have stepped up to the plate and are being more inclusive.

'Single All the Way'
It is nice to know that the LGBTQ+ community is being featured in movies like this and getting the representation they need. There is always that push that needs to happen in order to have directors see what the audience sees in order to be inclusive.
 
It has only been in recent years that this has been happening and there is still more pressure to be put on companies in order to get everyone involved. 

Hallmark is releasing a variety of films involving the LGBTQ+ community to ensure all audiences see themselves on the big screen for the holidays. That also includes people of color and different ethnic groups around the world being involved.


These movies don't call out anything we don't already know so there shouldn't be an issue with inclusivity and this issue should only get better from here.
