“…only one Asian woman has won an acting Oscar, and that was Umeki. No women of color have won a Best Actress statue in over 10 years. The last was Halle Berry in 2002, an award that simultaneously made her the first black woman to get a Best Actress statuette.”
Really sad, Academy.

Why representation matters too.

Everyone should know, in the 70s Nichelle Nichols went to NASA and asked why there weren’t black astronauts in the pipeline, and they said, “Come recruit for us.” And she did.
“From the late 1970’s until the late 1980’s, NASA employed Nichelle Nichols to recruit new astronaut candidates. Many of her new recruits were women or members of racial and ethnic minorities, including Guion Bluford (the first African-American astronaut), Sally Ride (the first female American astronaut), Judith Resnik (one of the original set of female astronauts, who perished during the launch of the Challenger on January 28, 1986), and Ronald McNair (the second African-American astronaut, and another victim of the Challenger accident).“ (x)

Let’s run this down: Empire is broadcast’s highest-rated drama series in the demo (if you exclude that post-Super Bowl special episode of NBC’s The Blacklist) and the second is ABC’s Scandal. The second-biggest new drama of the season is ABC’s How to Get Away with Murder. On the comedy side, the season’s highest-rated new sitcom is ABC’s Black-ish followed by, now, Fresh Off the Boat. Nobody working in network series development can possibly miss the significance of an unprecidented number of shows with diverse leads dominating the freshman crop of an otherwise dour season. After this year, broadcast TV will almost certainly never look the same.
