New Award Show? (A Supplemental Post)

Could Hollywood see a new award show?

An entertainment insider is seeking to develop the Myriad Honors Award Show. This would allow for a distinct honor that focuses exclusively on minority and foreign talent that are often overlooked. 

I found it odd that nothing like this existed. How could we live in a society that (proclaims at least) to recognize and support minorities, and not include this within film awards?

I took a look into past award recipients of the Oscars and found additional awards presented. These include:

The Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award

Presented to a creative producer whose body of work reflects a consistently high quality of motion picture production.

The Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award

Given to an individual in the motion picture industry whose humanitarian efforts have brought credit to the industry. Given for extraordinary lifetime achievement, exceptional contributions to the motion picture arts and sciences, or outstanding service to the Academy.

The Honorary Award

Given for extraordinary lifetime achievement, exceptional contributions to the motion picture arts and sciences, or outstanding service to the Academy.

There are 4 additional awards presented for Scientific achievements. Within the Oscars, one award is presented to a foreign language film.

Also, recently, Jessica Chastain received an award at the 2015 Critics' Choice Awards. In recognition of MLK Day, her speech recognized the need for diversity:

“Today is Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday, so it got me thinking about our need to build the strength of diversity in our industry, and to stand together against homophobic, sexist, misogynistic, anti-Semitic and racist agendas. I’m an optimist and I can’t help but feel hopeful about the future of film, especially looking at all of the beautiful people in this room. Martin Luther King Jr. said, ‘Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.’ And I would like to encourage everyone in this room to please speak up. Thank you.” 

What do you think? Could Hollywood, and America, benefit from establishing a new venue to recognize under-represented minorities in film?
