Is it disproportionate? Like egregiously so? I honestly dont know. This is the first I've heard of it and they've been awarding Oscars for what seems like forever.

I think it is the latter but not everyone would agree. I'm not going to rehash everything I've typed previously but both Octothorp and I touched on some of the main points that support this not being racist.
The problem is that the main "this is racist" proponents are self interested. Jada is mad her husband didn't get nominated and Spike Lee is...well Spike Lee. Everything is always about Spike and he's angry that he's not a good enough filmmaker to win an Oscar.
