Oscars Still So White

Category: News & Politics

Description:

Silicon Valley Bank abruptly shut down on Friday, in what was the second biggest bank failure in U.S. history. The bank serviced many startups and other tech companies, and the federal government is now taking steps to protect its deposits, and stop a potential financial crisis.

The 95th Academy Awards were held Sunday night, though the ceremony has been criticized over its lack of diversity. April Reign, the creator of the #OscarsSoWhite movement, joins us to discuss whether the conversations it started made a difference this year.

And in headlines: massive protests continue in Israel over a plan to overhaul the country’s Supreme Court, the BBC is facing severe backlash after suspending one of its top sports pundits, and the so-called “winners” of the 43rd annual Razzie Awards were announced.
