They lump POC and LBGT in with Retarded people. Like, being brown is akin to being retarded. The thought processes behind it is very white supremacist. Its like saying all non whites, non straights are to be considered retarded and need help just like handicap people.

They also put "women" in the same category.

Must have a retarded person, deaf person, disabled person... or woman.

wouldn't LGBT and disabled be the same category? The alphabet people all have a mental illness... sounds redundant to me.

Although it is discriminatory on its face, the underlying intention is anti-white, not white supremacist.

It’s also ridiculously narrow minded. What if a great movie is made abroad and is up for a Best Picture nomination. Would they apply the American Under represented rules, or those of the originating country?

Whites are a minority globally, so it’s pretty dumb to consider Asians, for example, an under represented group when the Asian population globally might be the majority group world-wide.
