#OscarsSoWhite - Twitter Complains About All-White Oscar Nominations

#OscarsSoWhite is the hashtag many on Twitter especially blacks and minorities are using to call out the non-diverse nominees for this year's Oscars. Others believe the film was generally snubbed, from the director to supporting actor roles, with Martin Luther King day coming up, it would've been a nice birthday present if the film received more recognition.

There are collage photos of the mostly all-white nominees for the best actor, best actress and other categories, comparing them to FOX News anchors, Republican Party presidential hopefuls and senate committee chairmen.
Below are the previous non-white oscar winners...
Readers what do you think??

  1. Truth b said d movie industry is a white dominated one and I think dey mk more thought provoking films. Summary is dat I just think movies is more of a white thing while music is more of a black thing. If it was an all white grammy, then I would b d 1st 2 raise my eyebrow. No hard feelings. Hmmm! "Uwaifo don talk e own o".
