Professional Life

Zoe is a multi-talented star with acting and singing skills. She has numerous amount of movies played in her career. Here are some of the highlights of her career. In an industry that rarely shows black women as anything but, in Zoe’s words, “best friend of the white girl”, Kravitz works hard to give weight to her flimsy blockbuster roles. She says in an interview with The Guardian:

“I ask writers and producers: ‘Why don’t you have any black people in your film?’, ‘Why do stories happen to white people and everyone else is a punchline?’ What I’m finding is that a lot of people don’t see it’s an issue because it’s not their story, unless they’re black or a minority.”

Zoe is also very vocal about racial discrimination that she faces in the industry. Regarding this issue, she says:

“There are certain roles where I know what they are asking for. They want me to talk like I’m not an educated person. But if my character’s not educated, you have to tell me why. It can’t just be because I’m black.”

She also talks about what a good piece of art looks like. “Art should be offensive to an extent. That’s what gets a reaction out of people; someone’s opinion that’s different from yours. It’s amazing to me that no one takes the time to try and see what someone’s trying to say because they’d rather just post an inane comment. They’re missing out on good art.” She goes on:

I think a lot of films now are really, really boring because no one’s willing to offend anyone. Everything’s become so PC. If you watch any movie that was made before the mid-90s, there are things that are being said and done that no one would dare do now, because they’d get criticised on a blog.
