RE: Post # 210
I’ll try to find the link but the long and short of it is this:
The people behind all these awards shows love movies that shows African Americans suffering from slavery, racism, segregation, etc. Movies like 12 Years a Slave, Selma, The Help comes to mind. But Black Panther is completely different as the characters and fictional country were never subjugated in any way and are technologically advanced. Not something that is likely to excite the folks who do the voting.
