In response to the whitest Oscar nominations in 17 years, Al Sharpton has issued a statement expressing his disappointment in the nominations and calling for a meeting to address the lack of diversity in Hollywood.
The lack of diversity in todays Oscar nominations is appalling, and while it is good that Selma was nominated for Best Picture, its ironic that they nominated a story about the racial shutout around voting while there is a racial shutout around the Oscar nominations, Sharpton said in a statement. With all of the talent in Selma and other Black movies this year, it is hard to believe that we have less diversity in the nominations today than in recent history.
Repeating a line he delivered to a TMZ reporter last month, Sharpton added, The movie industry is like the Rocky Mountains, the higher you get, the whiter it gets.
Sharpton also said he has called an emergency meeting with his task force in Hollywood early next week to discuss possible action around the Academy Awards.
The MSNBC host and head of the National Action Network convened similar meetings in December to address racially-charged comments made by Sony Pictures head Amy Pascal and producer Scott Rudin in leaked emails.
In an interview with the New York Daily News, Sharpton invoked the killings of Michael Brown and Eric Garner to emphasize why he felt the lack of nominations for black actors was so outrageous.
In the time of Staten Island and Ferguson, to have one of the most shutout Oscar nights in recent memory is something that is incongruous, he said. The only category were well represented is in the best picture nomination and its a movie about blacks being shut out of society. And now were shut out of Hollywood.
Selma received nominations for Best Picture and Best Original Song, but director Ava DuVernay and actor David Oyelowo were both snubbed by the Academy.

Civil-rights activist the Rev. Al Sharpton will be in Columbus this week as part of Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebrations at local universities.
Sharpton is to be at the Ohio Union at Ohio State University at 7 tonight to participate in a dialogue with Jamal Watson, a Washington, D.C., writer and lecturer who wrote a forthcoming biography of Sharpton. At 9:30 a.m. Thursday, Sharpton is to speak during a two-hour Columbus State Community College program at the Lincoln Theatre in the King-Lincoln District.
The visits are among events at both schools that run through this weekend.
Sharpton has been in the news lately after criticizing police in several high-profile cases in which African-Americans were killed. He has represented the family of Eric Garner, a 43-year-old Staten Island man who died last year after a New York police officer held him in a chokehold.
Columbus City Schools students are off today because of a new records day that allows teachers to perform record-keeping tasks.
If only the district could have looked into its crystal ball and seen that Ohio State Universitys football team would be playing in the national title game on Monday night, it could have scheduled the day off for yesterday, and students would have been able to sleep in.
But then again, there probably wouldnt have been much record-keeping going on yesterday, as fans continued to recover from celebrating the victory the night before. So maybe the call was the right one after all.
Also, records day falls on the day that former Superintendent Gene Harris is expected to plead no contest to dereliction of duty in the districts records-scrubbing scandal, which is kind of fitting. Because under Harris, records day had an entirely different meaning.
