>Woods pointed out the primarily white cast of the former G4, telling them, “it didn’t matter how bad my day was — the thing that I knew was gonna get me through was the fact that I could just turn on the TV and see ya’lls faces. Granted, none of ya’lls faces really looked like my face.”
>Woods says he’s already seen G4 takes steps toward a more inclusive future in his work with the network, and Sabbe stresses that it’s a priority both in front of and behind the camera.
>“Representation matters, representation is important, and especially representation in the games space, because I would say for the past decade, things have been changing,” Woods says.
>“And it’s such a great thing to know that video games especially, they are something that is for everyone. It is a safe space for everyone from all religions, all races, all creeds. Whatever you are, games are for you,” he goes on. “And I think that G4 is going to do a fantastic job of making sure that the make-up of the channel represents the make-up of the gaming community.”
