In one of the biggest nights of the year in British cinema, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts, BAFTAs, one of the recipients of the awards, Joaquin Phoenix, took the Baftas to the cleaners when he accussed it of ‘systemic racism’ while accepting his award. The actor’s speech which addressed issues of diversity and reputation was met with ‘uncomfortable silence’ and much praise.
In his speech, Phoenix said he felt conflicted by his victory “because so many of my fellow actors who are deserving don’t have that same privilege. We send a very clear message to people of colour that ‘you’re not welcome here.’”
The all-white acting nominees announced by Bafta last month provoked uproar, with the hashtag #BaftaSoWhite with some fearing this year’s ceremony might face a boycott.
“I don’t think anybody wants a handout or preferential treatment. People just want to be acknowledged and appreciated and respected for their work. I’m ashamed to say that I’m part of the problem, because I’ve not ensured that the sets I’ve worked on are inclusive.
