This is so amazing! First of all, I had no idea Sound Girls existed and I will be doing an extremely deep dive into their website after this. I know just reading this piece won’t help undo the history of oppression and exclusivity in the theater, and the fact that there is one female POC sound designer that is achieving great levels of success should not make me complacent. And it won’t. But it was still heartwarming to read a story we usually don't get to read, and hear a voice that is not usually heard. It's sad that Carolina has to make this avenue for herself in order to get this to be heard, but it's also in some ways inspiring. She forges on even when no one offers their assistance. Obviously she is an inspiration, I just hope one day her case won’t be extraordinary.
