"They" do have their own BET Awards where Whitey can attend but is not eligible for awards.
Funny how old thing come back in style, meaning Separate But Equal.

I might actually watch this year, just to see whether and how Chris Rock addresses the controversy.
I’m betting the organizers have found God and are praying that Rock joins the boycott. Having to bring in Doogie Howser, Space Nazi, to host again is MUCH less of a risk.

WHo even cares about the Oscars? It’s just Hollywood’s way of patting itself on the back. Meaningless for most of America.

Join the club, Al.
I’ve been boycotting the Oscars for decades.
So sick of their left-wing partisan drivel.
To: Zakeet
So now everyone is required to watch movies with black stars in them.......and like them.......a lot.

I once had a landlord by the name of Oscar. He was a white man. Burned his own house, my rental, down one winter. He was trying to thaw frozen water pipes with a blow torch. Wasn’t long before all the pipes were thawed and the house was a smoldering ruin. That was my only experience with an Oscar.

Rats are seriously under represented at the Oscars.

Well.. Al has sniffed out ANOTHER opportunity to extort money from guilty white LIBERALS.
In this case, Jewish and Caucasian Hollywood.

The last time the blacks threw a fit over the Oscars, the Academy wound up giving an Oscar to Whoopie Goldberg for Ghost.

She was great in Ghost though.

The Rev. Al Sharpton vowed Tuesday to organize a national "tune out" of the Oscars for its failure for the second year in a row to nominate a single black actor or director for an award. Now this is a boycott I can get behind. Of course, I haven't watched the Oscars in years.

The white movies that were nominated pretty much sucked.
Best Picture goes to a movie about a bear?!?!?! Really?!?!?!

Yes, let’s see just how liberal Clooney and DiCaprio really are, will they join the boycott in solidarity with their liberal black brothers?

You do realize this boycott call is idiotic in the extreme right?
