Oprah Winfrey for president
The Cecil B. DeMille Award for Lifetime Achievement in Motion Pictures är ett pris som delas ut årligen av Hollywood Foreign Press Association vid Golden Globe Award-ceremonien i Hollywood. Det är uppkallat efter Cecil B. DeMille
Hennes tal i samband med utdelningen kommer säkerligen att pratas om i många år - det var så imponerande att man nu pratar om att Oprah är redo för att kandidera som president 2020.
Vad sade hon som redan gjort detta till en klassiker?
En summering:
In 1964, I was a little girl...
The first black women to be given this award
We know that it is the insatiable dedication
to uncover the absolute truth
that keeps us from turning a blind eye
to corruption and to injustice,
to tyrants and victims, and secrets and lies
What I know for sure
is that speaking your truth
is the most powerful tool we all have
So I want tonight to express gratitude
to all the women who have endured
years of abuse and assault because they had
children to feed, bills to pay and dreams to pursue
Recy Taylor died ten days ago...
She lived too many years in a culture
broken by brutally powerful men -
but THEIR TIME IS UP!
How we overcome...
the one quality all of them seem to share
the one quality all of them seem to share
is an ability to maintain hope for a brighter morning,
even during our darkest nights.
So I want all the girls watching to know that
a new day is on the horizon!
And when that new day finally dawns
it will be because of a lot of magnificent women
and some pretty phenomenal men
fighting hard to make sure that they become
the leaders who take us to the time
when nobody ever has to say
"Me too" again
