Oprah Becomes First Black Woman To Win Prestigious Golden Globes Award And Gives by Nobody: 4:23pm On Jan 14, 2018
Oprah Winfrey gave one of the most iconic speeches of all time at the 2018 Golden Globe Awards when she accepted the Cecil B. DeMille Award.

The award was given by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for incredible contributions to the entertainment industry.

Actress Reese Witherspoon presented the 63-year-old actress and media mogul with the honour saying Winfrey's hugs "the greatest thing ever."
Winfrey, who stars in the upcoming movie A Wrinkle In Time, delivered an impassioned monologue talking about racism, sexism and the #MeToo movement and even honoured Rosa Parks and the late Civil Rights icon Recy Taylor.

“It is not lost on me that, at this moment, there is some little girl watching as I become the first Black woman to be given the same award,” Winfrey said in her powerful speech. “It is an honour and it is a privilege to share the evening with all of them.”

She later discussed the importance of women coming forward with their experiences of sexual assault.
