La 93e cérémonie des Oscars

Self - Winner: Oh my god. I did not expect to win this award. I am so, so, so, so grateful. Not only to win but to be a part of such an important, important story. So thank you so much. Thank you to the Academy - I've always wanted to say that. And of course, my collaborators D'Mile and Tiara Thomas, the song wouldn't be what it was without them. Of course I have to thank God for giving us these gifts, and my parents, my beautiful mother who's here with me today and my father at home. All those days of listening to Sly and the Family Stone and Curtis Mayfield and Marvin Gaye, they really paid off. So thank you, Dad. Thank you so much to Archie and Shaka King and everybody that was involved in this movie and gave me the call and gave us the call to do this record. I'm so, so grateful. I just want to say this. You know, musicians, filmmakers, I believe we have an opportunity and a responsibility, to me, to tell the truth and to write history the way that it was and how it connects us to today and what we see going on in the world today. And yeah, I'm just, I have no words. I'm just so, so, so happy and grateful. And yeah, knowledge is power. Music is power. And as long as I'm standing I'm always gonna fight for us. I'm always gonna fight for my people and fight for what's right, and I think that's what music does and that's what storytelling does. So thank you so much. Thank you.
