We all heard about #OscarsSoWhite in 2015 and 2016, a two-year span in which all 40 acting nominees were white. We know the first Black winners in the major categories—Hattie McDaniel, Sidney Poitier, Louis Gossett Jr., Halle Berry—partially because their wins have often been relegated to ubiquitous trivia questions. We know these things because these categories are populated by celebrities, so they enjoy the visibility and scrutiny that the other 20 Oscar categories often do not.  But there are still four…
