The Academy was doing so well with the ‘Oscars not so white’ slate and then they overplayed their hand by giving best picture to Green Book.
Conversation
They did the same thing Green Book does. They showed they can learn to appreciate polite, nicely dressed POC, and then they declared the end of racism and congratulated themselves by rewarding the movie. It was a white party with some POC in supporting roles.

Green Book is not even Crash (which is horrid). It is Guess Who's Coming to Dinner 2019. At the end, Dr. Shirley joins the white Christmas dinner, as he knows no black people. In Green Book, a black genius is validated by sharing white pasta.

Hey, pasta is important.
Indeed it is. Earlier in the film, The Lip (white) teaches Dr. Shirley how to enjoy fried chicken, because, you know, his people all love fried chicken. In the end, pasta trumps fried chicken.
