The Clown Prince of Crime

Latinos weren't slaves.
The black Latinos were slaves....their ancestors.

Latinos weren't slaves.
nice bait, but black lives matter is specifically about police brutality. police brutality that affects other minorities. so shouldnt it be "minorities lives matter" or something like that?
imagine if all joined to protest police brutality, imagine that.
To be fair, they don't speak up about it enough, outside of African Americans you don't hear many minorities making a stance on anything in the industry, not Asians, Latinos, Indians, etc.....
A lot of the African American celebrities do speak up about it, Spike Lee for example decided to go skip the Oscars and go to a Knick game even though he was being honored
Another thing is, a lot of Caucasian actors tend to bring up black actors specifically not getting much work, so all the focus goes towards them. Nothing wrong with that in my opinion, other groups should start speaking up more often so they can start getting just as much attention, but America's history also plays into things, that's a fact.

Boring, not funny, too long, and hypocrisy all around. Yep, sounds like every year's Oscars, no wonder the ratings are now at a 8-year low. Race issues aside, the show wasn't even remotely entertaining (yet again).
The Grammy show was just as bad
they do speak about it, it just doesnt make the media . (Latinos and even Native americans tried to create their own "--- lives matter" movement, The native americans specially because they suffer a lot of police brutality.
you probably dont even know that exists because absolutely no one cares. There are groups trying to bring that into light but the media only pays attention to one minority group. Im just saying. racism seems to be more important to progressive groups when it is being committed to one group, everyone else can fend for themselves.
That's what I'm talking about though, you don't see Hispanic celebrities
Glad Leo won, so all the whining ****s will shut up about it finally.
i think it also has to do with the fact that some hispanic people dont want to be called out or blacklisted in hollywood or something. It's like you worked so hard to finally get a spot in Hollywood and the last thing you want to do is ruin it by biting the hand that feeds. (or so I have noticed) That doesn't just happen with celebrities, a lot of normal people tend to keep their head down so that they dont get the wrong attention.
I stopped giving the Oscars any real credence many many years ago. It's a self-congratulatory pat on the back, decided on by a private organization of industry players. Many awards, like Leo's, come because that group feels that it is time for X person to get one (Scorsese, Denzel, etc.). And voters can be swayed by timing, promotion, and other factors. It's not up to a public vote, and there are no objective standards. So really, it doesn't mean a whole heck of a lot.
BUT, still great that Mad Max got so much recognition. It should have won EVERY AWARD.
So Inarritu & DiCaprio win best director and best actor respectively, but doesn't win best picture?! That doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
