became the second Black woman to win the Golden Globe award for lead actress in a drama film.
In the below-the-line film categories, “Soul,” which won the Globe for best animated motion picture, also netted wins for its Black co-director Kemp Powers and co-composer Jon Batiste. This year’s list of BIPOC winners also ties the figure from the 63rd awards in 2007, when film stars Forest Whitaker, Eddie Murphy and Jennifer Hudson, along with America Ferrara on the TV side, first made history with the most Golden Globes awarded to actors of color in a single year.
The dominance of white nominees and winners is nothing new. Over the last two decades, during which there have not been any Black voting members of the HFPA, the nominees and winners lists have come nowhere close to parity.
Enough on people s colour, right?
Golden Globes can do better, should do better and *must* do better. NotEnoughDiversity
Differentiating with differentiation lessens equality, inclusion.
If you continue to emphasize the color of their skin, you would never stop the unevenness.
Is diversity and ratio of white:black winners more important than content?
