In our sixth episode, Adiba and Katarina discuss the 2017 oscars. They particularly focus on the diversity issue – is #oscarssowhite, how far have we come in terms of diversity, and how can we do better? They also discuss the Moonlight/La La Land debacle, along with the various movies, actors, and actresses that were nominated for this year’s oscars.
