The ongoing riots in the United States these days, as we all know, were caused by the tragedy of Floyd, a black man in Minnesota, who was kneeled by the police for 7 minutes and finally suffocated to death, causing public outrage in the United States.
After the tragedy, not only many cities across the United States demonstrated for the rights of black people, but many stars also stood up in solidarity, including beyoncé, black pop diva Beyoncé, black and white mixed diva Mariah Carey, and Latin diva Camilla, who expressed great sorrow.

In fact, in the American entertainment industry, racial discrimination has existed for many years, music, film industry, if we look at the first award in the film industry that has been held for 92 years so far - the Oscars, we will find that for so many years, non-white film people have to come out, it is really difficult!
The following is only a review of the Oscar performance awards, to see the history of the blood and tears of Non-white actors in the United States at the Oscars, and the unremitting struggle over the years.
The first Oscars were awarded in 1929, of course, no black or colored filmmakers won the award, ironically, in the films shortlisted that year, the first sound film in film history, "Jazz King", the black characters were played by white actors painted with black paint.
In the first 11 Academy Awards, there were no black actors at all, and it was not until the 12th Academy Awards awarded in 1940 that Heidi McDaniel of Gone with the Wind finally won the Award for Best Supporting Actress. In that year, "Gone with the Wind" swept the Oscars, and Heidi, who played the black nurse Gretel in the film, won the Oscar with her comedic performance and convincing affinity, thus becoming the first black actor to be shortlisted and win an Oscar.
Heidi and Vivien Leigh cooperate tacitly in "Gone with the Wind".
Heidi won an Oscar. It is a great pity that after Heidi won the award, she has been looking for her roles, and she has repeated herself too much, so her career declined after a few years, and she died of illness in 1952 at the age of 60.
Although Heidi McDaniel's award set a precedent for black people to win Oscars, it did not change the racial tradition of the Oscars, and it was not until the Oscars awarded in 1950 that black actress Ethel Waters was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for "Tears of Blood", but this year's award was taken away by Mercedes McCumbretch of "Contemporary Adulteress".
In "Blood and Tears of The Swingers," Ethel Waters died in 1977 at the age of 81.
After another eight years of waiting, the Asian actor finally had his place at the 30th Oscars in 1958.
This time, Japanese-born actor Hayakawa Yukisu was nominated for Best Supporting Actor for "The Bridge Over the River Kwai", but lost to Ryder Bartons of "Sakura Love".
The Japanese actress Umeki Miyoshi of "Sakura Love" won best supporting actress, the first Asian actress to win an Oscar, when She was 30 years old and died in 2007.
The following year, at the 31st Academy Awards in 1959, black actor Sidney Porthier was nominated for Best Actor for Breaking Free of the Chains, but that year it was David Neevan of Mandarin Duck.
Sidney Portier won the Berlin film emperor for "Breaking Free", but lost the Oscars.
It's okay though, as one of the greatest black actors of all time, Sidney Portier created one first after another at the Oscars.
Five years later, in 1964, at the 36th Oscars, Sidney Portier won the Oscar for Best Actor for Wild Lily, the first black Oscar in history!! How difficult.
