Isn't Selma nominated for Best Picture? That's a movie about Martin Luther King and the beginnings of the civil rights push for African Americans.

Please excuse the misspelled names:

Last year: 12 Years A Slave (best picture), Steve McQueen (director - a black man), Chiwetle Ojowar (sp?) - nominated for best actor (black guy); Barkhad Abji - nominated for best supporting actor (black guy); Lupita Nyongo - Best Actress (black woman)

In 2013 Denzel Washington was nominated for Best Actor, Django Unchained nominated for Best Picture, Qwevenzane Wallis nominated for Best Actress.

so what's the problem, Al?

And every year now some movie - actor - actress gets nominated because the movie was about gay stuff and/or the actress and actor played a gay part.

“”In 2013 Denzel Washington was nominated for Best Actor””

And he still complains that there aren’t any good roles for black actors!!!!! Unbelievable but apparently he’s a liberal so it’s acceptable.
