About this listen

 Hollywood Blackout chronicles the stories behind these statistics. Award-winning writer and broadcaster Ben Arogundade narrates their tumultuous journey from exclusion to the brink of inclusion, via classic movies we know and love, and their subsequent Oscar nominations, victories and acceptance speeches.

The chapters are structured chronologically around different Oscar winners, from Hattie McDaniel to Halle Berry. Each section is rich with exhaustive research from critics, activists, and academics, as well as interviews with stars and those within the film industry, to demonstrate sociological and historical influences on minority artists, highlight positive progress, and make you realize that certain attitudes remain.
