Floyd Norman will receive an honorary Oscar.
He was the first black animator at Disney and had a 65-year run at the studio working on films such as ‘Sleeping Beauty’, ‘The Jungle Book’, ‘Mulan’ and ‘Toy Story 2’.
@KalahSoma Also I really enjoy your work btw. A couple of your yt videos have been one of the many great resources and starting points I used in expanding my understanding of pre colonial west African history and has really been an integral base of influence for a project I’m working on.
@KalahSoma Yeah we definitely approached things through a US and European lens and the scramble for Africa just went entirely glossed over as a small mention and footnote compared to the world wars. Leopold’s atrocities is something I learned about post graduation while in college
@realmsmisery The show removes so much of that ambiguity that it makes the watching experience compared to reading the book less enjoyable. Like imagine they give rhaneys her Baratheon black hair, suddenly jace, luke, and Joffrey’s legitimately is at least a second guess and not just known
@pretty_yunique Imo her character was fantastic and the performance she gave in her limited time was incredible. I agree the politics surrounding her character are very questionable but I think it’s okay to separate the two. If you still thought it was a poor performance that’s valid too tho
@Cindtrillella I think mike was the only one who qualified for the award bc he was the lead while delory would be considered supporting but i could be wrong
