The much-hallowed Emmy Awards recently turned out to be the butt of ridicule on Twitter as no actor of colour won a gong despite there being a diverse list of nominees.

The Emmy Awards got slammed on Twitter for being unable to make a bigger statement beyond its historic and diverse nomination fields, with all major acting trophies going to white actors.
