It’s tempting to look at the current Hollywood landscape and sigh because not much has changed. The 92nd Academy Awards will mark yet another year with nearly all-white nominees in acting categories , and the 87th year without any women directors nominated. As of 2020, no Asian-American has ever been nominated for Best Actress, and no Latinx woman has ever won . If Cynthia Erivo takes home the gold for her performance as Harriet Tubman , she would be the second Black woman ever (the first being Halle Berry in 2003) to win.
