It's hard to tell how this year's vocal disapproval will either (1) create or green light projects that feature more diverse characters (2) create added attention to diverse performances.
While to topic of diversity was front and center, it really specifically focused on African-American, or more generally black actors.
It could be seen as patronizing the way prior black nominees and winners were paraded as presenters and in audience members.
That said, I wanted at this point in the season collect a list of potential black performances from the list of prior nominees and winners. I fully acknowledge that there are roles and performances excluded from below from actors who haven't received prior nomination. I also acknowledge that many of these performances could be assumed to be excluded from the running because of the nature of the film/role. That said -- I've included as many as I can find here.

I think I know who of the actors will win this year. I recently ordered an essay about Morgan Freeman https://99papers.com/, because I really like this guy, he is very cool. After I had read about his work in this year, I realized that he would win. I advise you to learn about how it has worked in the movie Ben-Hur. This is an incredible actor of our time.
