"And my better half, who picked me up when I was gutted from this work, thank you," she continued. "And you know who I wanna thank?

She added, "Finally, I accept this award on behalf of every Black and brown woman who has gone unheard, yet overpoliced. Like Glenda Cleveland, like Sandra Bland, like Breonna Taylor. As an artist, my job is to speak truth to power and do it till the day I die. Mama, I won!"
