The annual Golden Globes award ceremony which seeks to honour film and American television actors, took place over the weekend and not unexpected, there were quite a few surprises. Hosted by television host, Seth Meyers, the 75th edition of the ceremony was to say the least, charged, with most of the recipient making statements about equality and all inclusiveness in their industry. While Sterling K Brown, who became the first African American to win the Golden Globes award for Best Actor in a TV drama series for ‘This is Us’ spoke about how hard it is now for anyone to ignore him or anyone who looks like him, Aziz Ansari became the first Asian-American actor to take home the Golden Globes award statuette for Best Actor in a musical or comedy TV series for his work on ‘Master of None’. For the Queen of talk show, Oprah Winfrey, she became the first black woman to be honoured with the Golden Globes Cecil B Demille award for her contributions to the entertainment industry and boy did she make an inspiring speech. From talking about the #MeToo stories to the #TimesUp movement which has been trending on the entertainment space to recalling an incidence of a gruesome 1944 gang rape of and death of civil rights pioneer, Recy Taylor to giving hope and inspiration to young girls, Oprah just did it.
