Make better movies and you'll get more nominations. You don't get a nomination just because you're black. That would be racist if the Academy based nominations on skin color...know what I mean?

Have any of the people complaining about the lack of black nominations made even one recommendation of who exactly got screwed this year? The issue isn't that the Academy refuses to nominate black actors, the issue is that Hollywood doesn't have the type of roles for black actors that garners nominations. Have any of these people mentioned that Asians weren't nominated and hardly ever are? Or any other race, for that matter. This isn't a black/white issue, they are trying to force it into one. The nominations next year should be very interesting.
I love the meme above about how the NBA is too black. Where is the problem there? Oh, it is merit based? Well so are award nominations. Again, if Hollywood had meatier roles for other races we would see them get more nominations. If programs were out there to develop more talent among whites/latinos/asians/etc then perhaps we would see those numbers rise in the NBA but those programs would be racist to begin with..so...
