Love Lily but just a small reminder that she is the first Indigenous American actress, as from the United States, to be nominated for Best Actress. The first Indigenous North American to be nominated was Yalitza Aparicio for ROMA as Mexico is, of course, in North America.
Lily Gladstone on being the first Native American to be #Oscar-nominated for Best Actress.
“Why am I the first? Why did it have to take this long for me to be the first Indigenous North American? Most of the films that show up in these categories are shot on Indigenous land in North America, and it’s taken this long.”
