2024 Award Season: Does Diversity Even Matter Anymore?

Is the DE&I backlash in America casting a shadow over award-season voters?

In our first ‘Brown & Black’ episode of 2024, we have a critical exploration of DE&I’s impact on Hollywood’s award season. We’ll also dissect the ratings and their implications, analyze the Latino shutout and its contributing factors, and share our predictions for which Latino and Black movies and talent will secure the coveted Oscar nominations.

*Main topics*
