I've gotten some recent questions regarding some of the talent development programs I'm aware of, primarily related to helping people of color in the creative industries. I thought this would be a good time to share the list that I have in case it's helpful for anyone. Sorry this post doesn't give more immediate context of each program, but I just wanted to add the links right away (LinkedIn, please make hyperlinks in posts a thing). Feel free to share this with anyone you think could benefit, or comment with any other good resources.
