No Black Actors Or Directors Were Nominated For Oscars And We’re Sick And Tired Of It

Oscars Only Nominate White Actors And Directors For the second year in a row, there hasn’t been a single Black person nominated for an Oscar . Just let that sink in. Twenty nominations this year and not a single person is Black. This is damn near impossible unless you’re trying your hardest to lock Black people out. This means that Michael B. Jordan didn’t get nominated for Creed . Idris Elba didn’t get nominated for Beasts Of No Nation . No Samuel Jackson. No Ryan Coogler. No…sigh…the list is just too long. We’re getting fed up with these award shows. To add insult to injury, Sylvester Stallone got nominated for Creed and the all-White writing staff for Straight Outta Compton got nominated. It’s time to stop giving these insulting awards shows any of our attention. They don’t care about us and we shouldn’t care about them. This is the final straw. Eff the damn Oscars and anyone who loves them.

Watch Conan O’Brien’s Tonight Show Writers Apply For Minimum Wage Jobs

At least that’s what this weekend’s Emmy B-Roll had them doing. The writing staff of The Tonight Show with Conan O’B rien followed in the tradition of Best Variety Writing nominees by submitting a short clip to be shown during the Creative Arts Emmy Ceremony — and theirs, of course, alluded to their collective unemployment following the NBC upheaval.
