Yes, the only reason black people are given awards is to appease PC culture /eyeroll.
And, I will name a prestige film where Tyson got good notices for playing a key supporting role: Fried Green Tomatoes
Cicely Tyson is also nominated for a Primetime Emmy this year for Guest Actress in a Drama Series for “How to Get Away with Murder” so I imagine this news was very exciting for her to cap off another successful year in her career.
