This year we have plenty of Black Oscar nominees and they all deserve our attention, however, I want to point one Barry Jenkins, who quietly made history at the 89th Academy Awards. The writer and director of
“Moonlight” became the first African-American to get nominated for not only Best Picture and Best Director but Best Screenplay, too. All in all “Moonlight” got 8 nominations.
Congratulations! Black people deserve to win this year for such a brilliant performance.
But after all these great news, shall we stop in our struggle for diversity and equal opportunities in Hollywood?
