By
Gina Cherelus NEW YORK (Reuters) - The creator of the #OscarsSoWhite
hashtag on Twitter on Saturday said she will watch and tweet about a
1999 coming-of-age movie featuring three black actors rather than Sunday

activists and entertainers snubbing the event for its lack of diversity.
April Reign, managing editor of BroadwayBlack.com, said she will watch

conference, hosted by the National Association of Black Journalists.

results, the sheer scale of the advances there suggests a legislature
more friendly to the pragmatist Rouhani has emerged as a distinct
possibility. A loosening of control by the anti-Western hardliners who
currently dominate the 290-seat parliament could strengthen his hand to
open Iran further to foreign trade and investment following last year's
breakthrough nuclear deal.
