Halle Berry's Still The Only Black Woman To Win A "Best Actress" Oscar, And She's Not Okay With It

To put things more into perspective, this year marked the 96th Academy Award ceremony, which means that out of the 96 years, only 14 Black women have ever been nominated, and only one has one. Halle's 2002 win was also the first time any woman of color had won the award and the first time two Black actors won in the same night — Denzel won Best Actor in a Leading Role for Training Day.
