Sunday we witnessed history as a slew of Academy Award Winners received oscars for their first time after decades of hard work and some doubled up! It felt good seeing that the #oscarssoblack was trending! Winners included Regina King for actress in a supporting role, Mahershala Ali won actor for supporting role for the second time! A first time ever! The legend Spike Lee also took home an Oscar and a slew of awards went to Marvel’s Black Panther which was Marvels first Academy Award!
I always say we shouldn’t look to be acknowledged by white award shows, but at the same time a lot of these thespians have worked their whole life for this prestigious moment. Unlike sports you have a chance every year to win. In film and TV something new is created every year so you may not have that opportunity. Click here for the list of winners and nominees.
