i fully understand that there is racism in the process, and in Hollywood period,
how else do you explain Waiting To Exhale not getting any nominations at Oscar
time 15 yrs ago?? BUT at the same time just because a black actor doesnt get a
nomination, doesnt mean that it is necessarily because of race, Cedric The
Entertainer WILL NEVER give a performance worthy of an Oscar nod, not IMO
anyways.... What about the other minorities? When was the last time an openly
gay or lesbian actor received an oscar nod? Not sure that Jodie Foster counts,
because some have said she lives in the glass closet
