Stereotypes
The Grammys has dropped the term "urban" to describe music made by black artists as the world reflects on certain stereotypes.
It is one of several changes being made to "evolve with the musical landscape".
It means the best urban contemporary album category will become best progressive R&B album for next year's ceremony.
Major changes have been made to several rules and guidelines that reflect the ongoing commitment to evolve with the musical landscape and to ensure that the #GRAMMYs nominating process and rules are more transparent and fair. https://t.co/28eho91Z1u

Lizzo, Beyonce, Rihanna and Pharrell Williams are all previous winners of the Grammys' best urban contemporary album award.
TV Shows
Father Ted is the latest programme to come under the spotlight for its portrayal of certain stereotypes.
It is currently trending on Twitter with fans of the show expressing their support for the comedy.
However, others have said that the show targeted Father Jack's mental health and the depiction of a Chinese person was racist.

Ant and Dec have apologised for using blackface on past episodes of their show Saturday Night Takeaway.
The presenters say they know it was wrong, and the sketches have been removed from ITV's catch up services.
Similar decisions have been taken with the comedy show "Little Britain", and even the classic movie "Gone With The Wind", set during the US Civil War.
The Mighty Boosh and The League Of Gentlemen have been dropped by streaming platforms over the use of blackface.
Netflix, Now TV and Sky have confirmed the comedy shows are not available.
The series have been criticised for their Spirit of Jazz and Papa Lazarou characters.
