Al Sharpton calls ‘emergency meeting’ over Hollywood’s all-white Oscar list
The Rev. Al Sharpton announced he was holding an “emergency meeting” to discuss Hollywood’s all-white list of Oscar nominees and talk about possible action against the Academy Awards’ powers-who-be.
“The movie industry is like the Rocky Mountains,” he said in a statement reported by Business Insider. “The higher you get, the whiter it gets. … I have called an emergency meeting early next week in Hollywood with the task force to discuss possible action around the Academy Awards.”
The awards ceremony has only nominated an all-white list of names for best actor, best actress and best director only once before in the last 20 years, The Hollywood Reporter said.
Mr. Sharpton gave kudos to the judges for nominating “Selma” for best picture, but then he decried the lack of diversity in the other categories.

I am sure there was a thread started about this. Could not find one.
Only one thing comes to mind when I hear or see anything from that fucking disaster of a black man and his grievance industry pushed and supported by everything democrat.
^^^^^^^^^^ The exact opposite of what democrats want. Since indeed the division of races, genders and classes is key to creating scapegoats, creating heroes, and ultimately gathering votes.
The morons on the left cannot see it, cause they are that thoroughly and utterly brainwashed.
Too bad they cannot see how the grievance INDUSTRY uses them.
