The Envelope Please: Who Will Win, Who Deserves to Win, Who Was Snubbed by Kam Williams

Kam usually does a pretty good job with this.  As far as Black folks go, Kam predictions are correct we will be frozen out of awards this year.

"...there was his shockingly-pedophilic sexualizing of 9 year-old Best Actress nominee Quvenzhane Wallis (Beasts of the Southern Wild) by speculating about when she’d be too old to date George Clooney."

 

I don't believe the jokes about her dating George Clooney are particularly pedophilic, but I do think some people are trying to sexualize her even at her age.
I've noticed that when she's doing interviews on various television shows or when they had her up for nomination one of the clips of her movie they like to show the most is of her running around in her panties gritting her teeth.

Often times there is a racial component to sexual exploitation that makes it easier for a perpetrator to victimize someone of another race because they don't see them as "one of their own".

Perhaps when Bubba Joe Six-pack is sitting on his couch watching television and sees little Quvenzhane, he doesn't see his daughter or little niece....he sees a "pretty young thing" that may not be quite as precious as the little girls in HIS family.

It's this "they're not the same as us" reasoning behind the old policy television networks used to have of not showing topless White women but would readily show topless African or Indian women living in the jungle or breastfeeding thier children during those famine commercials during the 80s.
