rooney mara played a native american this year so are the oscars even that white???


Mara's father has Irish, German, and French-Canadian ancestry, and her mother is of Irish and Italian descent.[7][8] Her "Rooney" ancestors originated in Newry, County Down.[9]

im pretty sure this is because there aren't many black leading actors/actresses in the top roles relative to white equivalents


Though given that only 13% of Americans are black, people shouldn't be surprised that most roles go to white most. It's not racism, it's the fact that most actors are white.

The real underrepresented group in hollywood is not African-Americans (which pushes for diversify casts in the name of political correctness often result in overrepresentation of African-Americans) but Latino's, which is an underpriviliged group that never benefited from a social justice movement pushing for their equal rights.
