Black Oscars : Race and the Academy Awards focus of Memphis library event John Beifuss, Memphis Commercial Appeal
In what Variety labeled an Oscar diversity record, nine actors of color were nominated this year for Academy Awards.
The milestone presented a hopeful contrast to 2016, when all 20 acting nominees were white, a situation that sparked the critical social media hashtag #OscarsSoWhite.
But Dr. Frederick W. Gooding Jr., an author and professor at Texas Christian University, cautions that achieving meaningful diversity in the acting categories may have more to do with the quality of roles than with the quantity of nominations. What does it tell us if the Black women winning Academy Awards 70 years apart are still playing maids? he asked, citing the Oscar-recognized performances of Hattie McDaniel in Gone With the Wind (1939) and Octavia Spencer in The Help (2011).
The campaign has been conceived by Lowe Lintas Mumbai.

NEW DELHI: Axis Bank has released a multi-film campaign for its cards portfolio. The campaign, conceived by Lowe Lintas Mumbai, focuses on the small moments of joy to promote the bank s credit card offerings.
In these series of ad films, Axis Bank has taken an emotion-driven approach, in line with its Dil Se Open philosophy.
The multi-film campaign highlights the various features and offers on the Axis Bank Select Credit Card and Flipkart Axis Bank Credit Card that are carefully curated around every day expenses such as entertainment, food and e-commerce. Each film revolves around a story of people opening up to innocent, raw moments of little joys. The monochromatic treatment of the films adds to the exclusivity and premium quotient of the campaign.
