“Argentinian Taylor-Joy is the first woman of color to win this category since Queen Latifah in 2008 and only the fifth woman of color to win overall since 1982 when the category was introduced.”
Writer Valerie Complex brought this to light when she tweeted, “I love her as an actress but THIS article lists her as the FIRST WOMAN OF COLOR to win in this category and I legit give up.”
In response to the announcement, several people voiced their opinions on social media.”Anya Taylor-Joy is not a woman of color, but she is very beautiful and very cool,” someone remarked.
Furthermore, someone else concurred, writing, “Anya Taylor-Joy is a lady of color?! Is everyone kidding me?! Her ancestry is Latin American, and she is Caucasian.
White folks also inhabit this area. The term “Latin American” does not describe a people group but rather a region with a distinct culture and history.
However, another person added: “Just a friendly reminder that being Latina and being a woman of color are not always synonymous.
