The 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards was criticized by Latinos; there were no major nominations for Latin performers, despite the Academy of Television Arts &amp; Sciences publicizing their improved diversity in 2020. While there was a record number of black nominees, there was only one individual Latin nomination. Hispanic and Latino representation groups said the greater diversity referred only to more African American nominees. When the "Los Angeles Times" reported the criticism using the term "black", it was itself criticized for erasing Afro-Latinos, a discussion that then prompted more investigation into this under-represented minority ethnic group in Hollywood. John Leguizamo boycotted the Emmys because of its lack of Latin nominees.
