Can we say that cinema is a product of "white culture"?

Tessa Thompson, a biracial actress, said she doesn't want to turn up to set and "see a bunch of white people or white men".

Did it ever occur to her that cinema has its origin in white culture?

As in white men who invented cameras, lighting equipment, sound recording equipment, etc etc?

White men who founded movie studios?

That the industry sees the skills passed on from white fathers to white sons?

But apparently her as a non-white female wants the industry to change what it is so she can feel more comfortable on set.

Imagine if female blacks had invented cinema and a white actor said "I don't want to turn up on set and see a bunch of black people or black women, I want diversity".

Let that sink in.
