AT THE BERLIN INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL, actress Meryl Streep was asked about her understanding of Arab and African culture (the jury panel for the festival was all-white).

Several celebrities have already decided to boycott the awards show to voice their anger at Hollywood for not doing more to accurately represent people of color in its films.
