Donald Glover accepting the award for best director for a comedy series; Lena Waithe accepting the award for best writing for a comedy series.
A Night of Firsts
Donald Glover and Lena Waithe both made history with their wins; Mr. Glover is the first African-American to win in the best comedy series director category, for “Atlanta” and Ms. Waithe is the first African-American woman to win in the best comedy series writer category. (She shared the award with “Master of None” series star and co-creator Aziz Ansari.)
Ms. Waithe’s speech was especially poignant: “And last but certainly not least, my L.G.B.Q.T.I.A. family. I see each and every one of you. The things that make us different. Those are our superpowers. Every day when you walk out the door, put on your imaginary cape and go out there and conquer the world, because the world would not be as beautiful as it is if we weren’t in it.”
