 So, are the Oscars still so white? 7 out of the 20 acting nominees this year are people of color, including a record 4 Asian performers, but nearly half of them come from the same movie. It's not like the whole industry suddenly got more diverse. Similarly, in 2020, Parasite boosted the number of behind-the-camera Oscars going to an Asian recipient, though 4 of those awards were shared by the same person. The reality is that only 34 acting Oscars have ever gone to non-white performers out of 348 total, particularly egregious from an organization that has a history of honoring, frankly, racist portrayals of people of color by white actors. And when compared to other film award knobs this year, certain exclusions have made the Oscars noticeably less diverse. So while this year marks an important milestone, Oscars, you're still pretty white.
