LOS ANGELES — This is a landmark year for Oscar nominations in terms of diversity and representation, with nine actors of color up for awards and the first women of color up for best director with Chloé Zhao for “Nomadland,” but it’s also an important year for the disabled community. From Hulu’s “Run,” starring Sarah Paulson and Kiera Allen, to “Sound of Metal,” starring Oscar nominees Riz Ahmed and Paul Raci, to the best live action short-nominated “Feeling Through,” we are seeing inclusive storytelling becoming a more authentic part of Hollywood.
