    Mr Motion

    My girl told me that Spanish people (Spaniards) rarely ever refer to themselves as Hispanic. They’re also not considered Latino at all.

    Ehhh a place like guatemala is literally like half spanish and half indian. And we're all guatemalan nobody calls themselves spanish or indian. I can see them doing this s*** in spain. But the spaniards are colonizers nobody is claiming them in south america.

    these requirements are stupid easy to meet

    And that's the problem, it's literally bare minimum effort to a larger issue.

    Forced paid internships & training? Nah i feel like the production companies are gonna lobby against this or just forgo the oscar win no way they'd want to do that

    This is the only thing I approve of. F*** unpaid work. S*** is just free labor in a cog machine.

    Theory

    Lol you’re good. I’ve never seen the debate and it’s not something I really care about lol, I’ve just never seen anybody make the argument. I never assumed Penelope Cruz or Javier Bardem were white, I guess their skin color is whiter than other minorities but there are a lot of people of color with light skin that I wouldn’t say aren’t people of color because of that. I feel like people from Spain would probably be discriminated against, but idk stats or anything on it really so I’m not in a position to debate it

    Idk if this late. But if you white in Europe then you white basically. Spaniards bcolonkzed equally as hard with the French and British

    Theory

    I feel like the actors I know from Spain off hand (Banderas, Cruz, Bardem) experience similar underrepresentation in film/oscars? You have those 3 actors who have racked up 7 noms between them as being the only Spanish actors ever nominated in acting roles. Compared to 78 nominations for black actors.

    It seems like you feel a lot more passionate about this than I am and I’m not really trying to debate it but it seems like gate keeping to say that people from Spain wouldn’t be considered people of color. I get that Spanish isn’t a race, but generally Hispanic people aren’t considered white. Some hick riding around with a confederate flag would likely fail to differentiate between somebody from Mexico and Spain.

    People from Spain are considered white. People from South America are considered Latino/Latina.

    Spanish people are white they just look Spanish with darker hair and more tanned skin. It's like saying Italian people aren't white.

    Every native European like British, French, Italian, Swedish, Spanish etc is white. However of course we have minority actors like John Boyega who is Black British.

  • This is terrible. Just awful. What was the academy thinking?

  • Sep 9, 2020

    Just makes the best picture nominees more American and focus-grouped than ever before.

  • Don't know a single black person who watches the Oscars or any of this circlejerking c***shit.
