In a renewed effort to shine a spotlight on the cases of missing people of color, “Access Hollywood” has joined forces with the Black and Missing Foundation for a monthly feature.
Actress and correspondent Zuri Hall will host the special coverage program. The first segment aired on Monday, highlighting the case of Georgia resident Tiffany Foster, who was reported missing on March 2nd, 2021, after failing to show up for her college class. The day before, she left her home headed to the grocery store, but it is unclear if she ever made it there. She was also uncharacteristically absent from work on March 5th. The vehicle belonging to the mother of three was located on March 8th in College Park. Her fiance, Toby Nix, is considered a person of interest in her disappearance. However, the 35-year-old has not been located.
“It is my honor and privilege to play even a small role in highlighting the cases of missing Black men, women, and children in America,” Hall shared of the new segment.
“Access Hollywood” is hoping to bring awareness to the cases of missing Black people, whose cases have statically gone underreported. Sadly, they also go largely unresolved, with tormented loved ones left to wonder what happened to their family member. “Access Hollywood” was previously paired with Black and Missing earlier this year, when it highlighted the case of 39-year-old missing mother, Cynthia Bah-Traore. From there, a long-term partnership was birthed.
This is not the first time that the Black and Missing Foundation has paired with a major outlet to tell the stories of missing Black people. Last year, HBO Max banded with the organization for a four-part mini-series documenting their fight for justice and the mounting missing person’s cases they cover every year.
