'The Emmys may finally have woken up, at least a little bit, to the abundance and diversity of talent on the small screen,' writes klawls for usatodaylife.
It's hard to assign motive to an anonymous body of 23,000 voters, ranging from actors to directors to editors to casting professionals. But Hollywood awards, especially the Oscars, have been criticized repeatedly in recent years for being"so white," as prominent categories like acting and directing shut out potential nominees of color, despite critical acclaim.
The biggest success story is HBO's"Watchmen," a series that specifically confronts race and policing in America. Although it aired in 2019 before mass protests broke out across the country, its depiction of the 1921 Tulsa massacre and its nuanced portrayal of a Black policewoman made it achingly relevant in 2020. The limited series deservedly received 26 nominations, the most of any series.
