Issa Rae at the Emmys: ‘I’m Rooting for Everybody Black’ | Variety
There are some whiny people calling Issa Rae racist for this statement. "I'm rooting for everybody black." What are your opinions? The main go to phrase people are griping about is that if someone said "I'm rooting for everybody white." There would be a huge deal. I'll add my comments in a bit.

Regarding Issa Rae, I understand why she would say that regarding the nominees. Donald Glover ended up being the first black director to ever win and Lena Wraithe ended up being the first black woman to win for writing in a comedy. This isn't a case of just being nominated for their skin color for diversity. They were nominated based off of merit. I usually do an Emmys post to pick winners ahead of time but I didn't this year. The amount of love Big Little Lies and Handmaiden's Tale got was a bit much but I do love that Ann Dowd won an emmy. She should have for her Leftovers performance. Atlanta was great and deserved the awards it won along with Sterling K Brown.
