Regina King Says Emmys Are Still 'As White As Ever'
Were this year's Emmys white-washed, again? Regina King thinks so. In a commentary for the Huffington Post, the former "227" actress vocalizes what many working actors of color in Hollywood were probably thinking as they watched the ceremony: Where are all the brown folk?
"I try hard in my daily life not to engage in uncomfortable situations regarding race," writes King. "It is impossible for me to ignore the published statistics regarding the number of people of color mentioned, celebrated or honored in the history of the televised Emmys..."
Here's what you had to say:
Myra commented via Facebook: "I love Regina King she always speaks her mind."
Cory wrote via Facebook: "The only way this will shift is by people of color taking roles of ownership."
