Solving Black Discrimination at the Oscars

[SharpArrowhead]

He makes a good point in the beginning and his solution sounds spot on too. Maybe we need to cast more roles for minorities too. That might even things out.

 

[Freewill]

ah, what discrimination? That is an assumption without proof. there are plenty of roles for blacks considering their proportion of the population. Maybe if they acted just a little better they would get the nominations.

Who gives a shit? Those spoiled, rich elitist, privileged Hollywood types can suck it. If they are sincerely concerned about righting the wrongs of racism then they are be focusing on disparate prison sentences or some other REAL issue.

Maybe they should select better roles?

They can give out oscars based on race without regard to talent or ability. Or, just have a separate category. Have a black director, black actor, black producer so they can win non competitively.

The solution is fewer white people?

Hitler had a similar solution, only he thought there should be fewer Jews.

 

[Godboy]

The solution is they will just heap a bunch of awards on undeserving black people.

Like television where black actors and actresses are shoveled all over the shows without regard as to whether the can act or have a plot to support them.

The Oscars just needs Affirmative Action voting, and all will be well.

Winners who worked for their oscars, not just have them given to them because of their skin

Many adults came as indentured servants, slaves for a period of time, in the early days.

True, but the difference is that indentured servants voluntarily entered their contracts, while slaves did not.

For quite a awhile an apprentice was little more than a slave that was taught a trade for a period of years.
