Thank YOU, Musu Writes! We're all weekend.

Repost : ・・・ "I hit up the local book fair this weekend and grabbed some good material! As authors, writers and readers, it’s so important to support local talent! I was amazed at the creatives I met and the passion they had toward their work.

If you’re looking for good reads this year, you may not have to go to Barnes and Noble and kick out extra money. The answer to your craving could be right in your own backyard. .

I’m also excited about supporting these creatives because of the launch of my podcast, the Writer’s Haven which is well underway! Click the link in the bio for the latest updates! -

Trivia ~ Celebrating diversity in the film industry: http://instagram.com/p/BuT8wi0HyQt.

Two years after Spike Lee was passed over for a nomination for "Do the Right Thing," John Singleton became the first African American to earn a Best Director nomination for "Boyz N the Hood" in 1991. That year, Jonathan Demme won the award for "The Silence of the Lambs." .

Spike Lee became only the sixth black director to receive an Oscar nomination in the Academy's history for his work on "BlackKklansman." But so far, no black filmmaker has won in that category.

“BlacKkKlansman” was nominated for Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Adam Driver), Best Director (Lee), Score and Editing. Spike Lee won his first Oscar for adapted screenplay for that film.

'For all the drama leading up to Oscars 2019, it proved to be a historic night of celebrating diversity in the film industry:

Ruth E. Carter, costume designer, and Hannah Beachler, production designer, became the first African-American women to win in their respective fields for their work on "Black Panther." Mexican director Alfonso Cuarón took home three Oscars for "Roma": best director, best cinematography and best foreign film.

Regina King won the best supporting actress award for "If Beale Street Could Talk." Mahershala Ali took best supporting actor for "Green Book," the civil rights film which won best picture. "Bohemian Rhapsody" best actor-winner Rami Malek talked from the stage of being "the son of immigrants from Egypt."'
