In her acceptance speech, Bassett praised the black actresses who were “pioneers” before her, as well as those working alongside her today — including Viola Davis, Regina King, Jennifer Hudson and Octavia Spencer — as she spoke of the work that remains to be done do in maintaining diversity within the film industry.
“I proudly share this honor with the women who stand up when told to stand down, who speak up when silenced, who stand firm when told they are defeated,” she said. “These women represent those I have had the honor of portraying, as well as the everyday women who surround us and inspire us to keep striving.”
