So can someone pass this idea on to influential people in Hollywood? I understand why there are many Black actors/directors and others who are considering boycotting the Oscars and I understand why. This will however just be a bunch of white people congratulating a bunch of white people.
This is my suggestion: Go in a large group, wear all the same color (maybe black), sit together and be silent, no clapping, no cheering and no bad behavior. Imagine the impact.
Now I know that many of the white actors are just as unhappy about this situation and some will be uncomfortable....but it would make a pretty impressive statement.
But I am white, so maybe I am wrong.

Only reason I can see not to is fear for one's employment, which is a powerful force.

The ideal thing would be for a lot of bankable stars to speak out.
