It was this wholesome moment that inspired award-winning filmmaker and journalist Kellee Terrell to share a tweet highlighting how easy it is to tell when a Black nominee has won when the presenter of the award is also Black.
I spoke with Kellee and she shared what influenced the viral tweet, which has now gained over 73,000 likes. "I always watch awards shows, so as Issa said, 'I am always rooting for everyone Black.'
