The nominations for the 89th Academy Awards were announced Tuesday morning, and a whopping seven of the 20 acting nominations were for "people of color," including Best Actor for Denzel Washington, Best Actress for Ruth Negga, Best Supporting Actor for Mahershala Ali and Dev Patel, and Best Supporting Actress for Octavia Spencer, Viola Davis, and Naomie Harris.

Not only that, but the Best Documentary category includes three films about the black experience in America, cinematographer Bradford Young became the second black cinematographer to be recognized in that category, and Joi McMillon became the first black woman to be nominated for film editing.

But for April Reign (pictured above), whose #OscarsSoWhite hashtag last year embarrassed Hollywood about its lack of Academy Award diversity and led some celebrities like Will Smith and Michael Moore to boycott last year’s ceremony, that's no indication that diversity's no longer an issue in Hollywood.

“One year does not make up for over 80 years of underrepresentation of all genders, sexual orientations, races, abilities and First Nation status,” Breitbart reports she told the L.A. Times. “#OscarsSoWhite is about the inclusion of all marginalized communities, both in front of and behind the camera, throughout the entertainment industry.”

Reign told the Hollywood Reporter that there's so much more Hollywood could do to pacify all the splinter groups of identity politics:

“While these films this year reflect the black experience, I’m still waiting for films that reflect the Latin experience, for a romantic comedy with two LGBTQ members, for a disabled or differently-abled superhero. We’ve actually seen a step back in respect to the Asian-American and Pacific Islander experience with movies like Ghost in the Shell or Tilda Swinton in Doctor Strange. So there’s still more work for #OscarsSoWhite. We haven’t gotten there yet, but today was another step in the right direction.”

Breitbart noted that the hashtag and controversy have forced big studios and the Academy itself to increase diversity in front of and behind the camera:

In June, the Academy issued a record 683 invitations to new members in an effort to include more people of color, and women. In January, AMPAS approved a rule change that granted members voting rights for ten years, rather than for life, that was designed to allow younger, “active” filmmakers and actors a larger say in the nomination process, but was seen by critics and some inside the Academy as an attempt to exclude the selections of older, white members.

In March, the Hollywood Reporter noted that studios were focusing their efforts on casting more women and people of color in major projects, specifically in response to the #OscarsSoWhite controversy.

Watching the Hollywood left fall victim to its own progressive agenda and begin to eat itself is as entertaining as most Hollywood movies.
