A native Detroiter, Diarra Kilpatrick is an accomplished actress, writer and producer who is finally beginning to get her due from mainstream audiences and outlets. In this first episode of Season Two of The Get InPowered Podcast, Diarra discusses how the "business" of show stood in her way to success, as she hungered for meatier roles, more challenging work and a truer artistic expression.
So she did it herself.
"I just asked myself, what if Scandal lost its budget?"
