Abstract: First paragraph: With the Academy Awards ceremony just around the corner, it’s worth reflecting on some of the criticism triggered by the Oscar nominations and fuelled by the recent BAFTA awards. There was only one thing more predictable than the overwhelmingly white, male, able-bodied “face” of this year’s Oscar nominations: the well-rehearsed outcries at the marginalisation of anyone who isn’t a white dude.  Access this article on The Conversation website: https://theconversation.com/why-are-we-so-surprised-at-the-oscars-lack-of-diversity-36029
