Too White! Let's Boycott!

Maybe they should hand out participation Oscars.

I mean really, we already have affirmative action in the White House.

Im white and I think Jada would be excellent in the sack.
-
And furthermore there are a lot of black recording artist they could've let one of them in what morons!
-
jada looks like a tanned Spaniard or something, what in the all fuck is she complaining about when she does nothing but try to look like euro trash.

Someone ran the statistics on this , the distribution is pretty good.
This is just a down year in a choppy environment

I think any reporter worth his salt would ask Will Smith which of the Best Actor nominees he believed were inferior to him and should not have been nominated.

Ha! Like.
Also is it just me or does Jada kind of look like Will Smith's mum in Fresh Prince of Bel Air?
-
Like Will Smith's mom on Fresh Prince of Bel Air asked, (Pharapharsing ) what have they done for the black community and black films? I mean they have made enough money in Hollywood they should have a bigger influence.

I think this kind of protest has done more to harm the "community" than anything Jim Crow or the klan or the Academy could ever accomplish.

Totally agree. It's about giving back and being supportive rather than racial overtones we are trying to smash.I think this kind of protest has done more to harm the "community" than anything Jim Crow or the klan or the Academy could ever accomplish.

But however there was no really good black movies last year to my knowledge, even Ride Along 2 sucked.

Same question I'd ask Will Smith. Which movie or actor should have been replaced by black actor or film?
I haven't seen them all maybe some of you guys have seen some I have not

I don't think the academy awards are racist.
You aren't entitled to it because you're black, you gotta be good no matter what your race is.
There's been tons of black academy award winners. It's sad how much racial tensions seem to be growing everywhere.

The only movie I can think of that might have been included would be straight outta compton, but then, that's not really oscar material is it? Also, I think they overestimate the importance of NWA. Hip hop existed well before them. They weren't exactly ground-breaking.

Saying that you need to include mediocre movies into the oscar talks because they happened to star or be written by or directed by black people is rather demeaning isn't it? Black people still don't seem to get that Affirmitive action (because that's what this would be) is harmful to them. It propagates the notion that mediocrity is exceptional for black people. Black mediocrity isn't exceptional. Black Exceptionalism is exceptional.
