Part 6/8:
Hudson’s commentary advocates for a mindset that rejects victimhood and encourages people to focus on their craft and marketability. He criticizes the tendency of some Hollywood figures to perpetuate narratives of systemic oppression to explain personal setbacks, suggesting instead that many issues stem from a combination of talent, opportunity, timing, and industry economics.
He urges people to recognize that success and remuneration are complex and multifaceted. Blaming external factors such as racism or sexism, while sometimes valid in specific contexts, should not be the default explanation for career difficulties.
