A special congratulations to the cast of Black Panther for their SAG win!
The movie beat A Star is Born, Bohemian Rhapsody, Crazy Rich Asians, and BlacKkKlansman to pick up outstanding performance by a cast in a motion picture. The Marvel movie also won Stunt ensemble in a motion picture.
Chadwick Boseman aka King T’Chella gave an inspirational speech that included a reference to Nina Simone’s legendary song, “To Be Young, Gifted and Black.”
“We know what it’s like to be told there’s not a screen for you to be featured on, a stage for you to be featured on. We know what it’s like to be the tail, but not the head,” Boseman said. “We know what it’s like to be beneath, but not above. And that is what we went to work with every day. Because we knew not that we would be around during awards season or that it would make a billion dollars, but we knew that we had something special that we wanted to give the world,” he added. “That we could be full human beings in the roles that we were playing. That we could create a world that exemplified a world that we wanted to see.”
Black Panther has truly inspired the world to stay woke!
