A grand total of zero people of color won in any of the acting categories at Sunday's Primetime Emmy Awards.
All of the acting awards at Sunday's ceremony went to white performers, even though a record 49 non-white nominees earned nods for acting and reality competition awards, Variety reports. Three Black actors did win for their guest performances at the Creative Arts Emmys this year, The Hollywood Reporter notes.
