VIDEO : Selma Director Ava DuVernay Speaks On 'Diversity' Of The Oscars

The lack of diversity at the 2016 Academy Awards certainly hasn't gone unnoticed, with many stars speaking out or choosing to avoid Hollywood's biggest night. But Selma director Ava DuVernay, who was snubbed from last year's Oscars despite the movie's critical acclaim, told a crowd during the Sundance Film Festrival the word "diversity" is incorrect. "We're hearing a lot about diversity," she said, per the New York Times. "I hate that word so, so much." The Academy, who has faced fierce criticism since the nominations were announced, revealed last week that it was making serious changes to its membership and doing away with guaranteed voting rights for life. DuVernay lauded the decision.
