The 2002 awards felt like a turning point for Black actors. But 13 years later came OscarsSoWhite.
From this high note to #OscarsSoWhite
The next morning, newspapers and websites bannered photos of Washington in his sleek tuxedo and Berry in that jaw-dropping gown by Elie Saab, beaming as they held their respective trophies.As Stewart notes in the podcast, the Oscars are not just about what takes place onscreen, but it’s also about what is happening behind the scenes in Hollywood, including “the ways that films have been made, the ways films have been distributed and the ways that people watch and appreciate films.
Berry said she decided she would simply create a new role to play. The plotline? “My battle to find work that supported my win.”“I would have to stay on that same path of trying to convince people that I could play certain roles that people thought I couldn't play… I would also have to try to convince producers and writers and directors, if there were roles that were written for a man or for a white woman to think about making them a Black woman.
Berry said that years later, she was able to relive the glorious moment of her Oscar win when she visited the Academy Museum with her daughter, Nahla.
