Whitewashing of Oscar nominations
The announcement of the 88th Academy Award nominations last week has indicated a whitewashing of the artists the Academy has voted for. From Leonardo Dicaprio to Cate Blanchett, there seems to be no artists of colour in the race for the Oscar this year. This has caused much distress to many, with some people even boycotting the event as a whole. We are now joined by Dr Glen Donnar from RMIT University to discuss more about this issue.
