Regina King Wins at Golden Globe 2019, Makes Pledge to Achieve Equality in the Workplace

Regina King accepts her award on stage at the 2019 Golden Globe Awards on Sunday (January 6) at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif.

The 47-year-old actress, a double nominee tonight, won her first Globe for Best Supporting Actress for her work in If Beale Street Could Talk.

Regina was also nominated for her work in the Netflix series Seven Seconds.

“So often everyone out there they hear us on the red carpet and they say a celebrity is using the time to talk about ourselves when we are on our soap box and using a moment to talk about the systemic things that are going on in life,” Regina said during her speech.

“The reason why we do this is because we understand that our microphones are big and we are speaking for everyone,” she added. “And I just want to say that I’m going to use my platform right now to say in the next two years everything that I produce I’m making a vow and it’s going to be tough, to make sure that everything that I produce that is 50% women. And I just challenge anyone out there…who is in a position of power, not just in our industry, in all industries, I challenge you to challenge yourselves and stand with us in solidarity and do the same.”

Also pictured inside: Regina‘s Beale Street co-star Stephan James, who was a nominee for his work on the show Homecoming.
