While accepting the award Chadwick who was joined on stage by Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nygong’o, Danai Gurira, Andy Serkis, Sterling K. Brown, and Angela Bassett, gave a passionate speech about being “young, gifted and black.” “Well, I’ll be,” Chadwick Boseman, said. “To be young, gifted and black, we all know what it’s like to be told that there is not a place for you to be featured. Yet you are young, gifted and black. We know what it’s like to be told there’s not a screen for you to be featured on, a stage for you to be featured on, we know what it’s like to be the tail and not the head. We know what it’s like to be beneath, and not above. And that is what we went to work with every day,” Boseman also thanked “genius” director Ryan Coogler and Marvel Studios chief and master architect Kevin Feige.

#RHOA: Porsha Vs. Kandi FINALLY Went Down And Here’s Who Is Getting Dragged

Source: Bravo / BravoTV.com Porsha Vs. Kandi Happy New Year and happy new shade! The internet has been waiting for this moment for weeks now: Porsha vs. Kandi finally having a head-on collision for the cameras. Porsha started off the shade by walking right by Kandi and making her look silly as hell. Then Twitter followed up by tearing apart Kandi’s claims that Porsha was turning up. The argument was that Porsha was drinking and acting wild but Kandi didn’t know that Porsha was most likely pregnant and knew it so she wouldn’t be drinking. Welp. Caught in a little fib, no? Twitter came all the way for Kandi and had Porsha’s back the whole time. Porsha walked right on past Kandi like: #RHOA pic.twitter.com/Lhu9O44W7q — Sheneneh Jenkins (@4thfloor_Queen) January 7, 2019 Take a look at the way they dragged the hell out of Kandi.

#MelaninMagic Danai Gurira Flaunts Her Fit ‘Black Panther’ Physique For ‘Women’s Health’

Danai Gurira Covers Women’s Health Danai Gurira , 40, is in incredible shape and she’s speaking on the power of fitness with Women’s Health . The “Black Panther” actress/playwright spoke with the publication on a number of healthy mind and body related topics including self-care and intense “Corectology” workouts she does sometimes four-times a week with trainer AJ Fisher. “Their sessions, she says, are extremely challenging: “Sometimes it’s so intense I can’t remember what we did.” Fisher specializes in a method she coined called “Corectology,” which aims to even out muscle imbalances while improving strength, mobility, and cardiovascular function. A typical workout for Danai includes lots of circuit training and Pilates-inspired moves, in which she alternates high-intensity intervals and active rest (that’s when she’ll do the Pilates 100, a classic core move from the method). She also encourages women to use fitness as a form of empowerment. “As women, we’re not always encouraged to find the fullest extent of our physical power,” she says. “There’s something so exciting about tapping into that part of ourselves.” We love reading about this positive and smart Queen and can’t wait to see her continue to reprise her role as Okoye. I'd love all women and girls to experience how powerful our bodies are. Thank you @WomensHealthMag and @LizPlosser ! Loved this shoot. So great to talk about feminine strength and self care. https://t.co/tAlq97IgLg #WHStrong pic.twitter.com/czhW11IOBz — Danai Gurira (@DanaiGurira) June 19, 2018 What do YOU think about Danai Gurira’s Women’s Health cover???
