Oscar award, which is dubbed movie’s biggest night, The 89th Annual Academy Awards was held at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood on Sunday night, and it saw amazing people of colour, and stories of people of colour, bagging awards, unlike last year when the Oscars ceremony was so white it sparked a major conversation that changed the Academy Awards.
