criticized the lack of diversity among the nominated creators and performers this awards season, saying the issue could no longer be ignored.
Phoenix said that while he felt "honoured" to be in attendance and appreciated the support from the BAFTA organization, he was "ashamed" that actors of colour were not afforded the "same privilege." "I feel conflicted because so many of my fellow actors that are deserving don't have that same privilege. I think that we send a very clear message to people of colour that you're not welcome here," Phoenix said. "I think that's the message that we're sending to people that have contributed so much to our medium and our industry and in ways that we benefit from.
Gamers rise up (against systemic racism)
🙄🙄
'Phoenix acknowledged that he views himself as 'part of the problem.' 'I have not done everything in my power -- not all sets I've worked on are inclusive,' he added.'
Yeah another woke actor.
He should have had more black people in joker 2 maybe 3 blacks in joker is disgraceful maybe even racist,
Don't see a lot of minorities and even less poor people at these events. The 'woke' white people there, complain year after year, but they always show up and continue working in and supporting the same old system. - It's called hypocrisy
