Oscars Snubs: Chadwick Boseman, Viola Davis and 'Trial of the Chicago 7' Shut Out

In the best actress category, where two black women were nominated for only the second time in Oscar history, neither one won, despite Viola Davis becoming the most nominated Black actress in Oscars history with four nominations and winning the equivalent award from the Screen Actors Guild earlier this month and Day winning best actress at the Golden Globes.
