On this episode, I have a conversation with April Reign, the creator of #OscarsSoWhite viral hashtag and movement, created to confront the lack of diversity in the Oscars and movie industry as a whole. We discuss this year's Oscar nominations, changes to the industry since the #OscarsSoWhite movement began, and some reactions to criticisms of Hollywood's lack of diversity.
