The Screen Actors Guild Awards were last night, with the big winners being the summer hit Stranger Things and the new highly-acclaimed film Hidden Figures. The night quickly became an opportunity for winners to fire back against the Trump administration in their speeches, as Trump's new Muslim immigration ban has sparked protests nationwide. Ashton Kutcher opened the ceremonies with a welcome to “everyone in airports that belong in my America. You are a part of the fabric of who we are. And we love you, and we welcome you.”
David Harbour, accepting the "Best Cast in a TV Drama" award for Stranger Things, gave an impassioned speech against racism and exclusion, calling for artists to "battle against fear, self-centeredness and exclusivity of our predominantly narcissistic culture and through our craft to cultivate a more empathetic and understanding society... by revealing intimate truths that serve as a forceful reminder to folks that when they feel broken and afraid and tired, they are not alone."
Mahershala Ali, accepting his award for Best Supporting Film Actor, correlated his performance in Moonlight with the importance of acceptance in today's times. “What I’ve learned from working on Moonlight is, we see what happens when you persecute people,” Ali said. “They fold into themselves. And what I was so grateful about in having the opportunity to play Juan was, playing a gentleman who saw a young man folding into himself as a result of the persecution of his community, and taking that opportunity to uplift him and tell him that he mattered and that he was O.K. and accept him and, uh — I hope that we do a better job of that."
Julia Louis-Dreyfus, accepting the award for Best Actress in a Comedy Series for her work on Veep spoke about her family history. “My father fled religious persecution in Nazi-occupied France,” Ms. Dreyfus said. “I’m an American patriot. And I love this country, and because I love this country, I am horrified by its blemishes, and this immigrant ban is a blemish, and it is un-American.”
Taraji P Henson, star of Hidden Figures gave a message of love and acceptance. “When we put our differences aside and we come together as a human race, we win, love wins," she said. "Every time.”
Most speeches were politically inclined, with Emma Stone speaking about the "inexcusable and scary" actions of the Trump administration, Sarah Paulson encouraging the audience to donate to the ACLU, and Bryan Cranston, winning for his performance as Lyndon B Johnson, telling the audience what he thinks Johnson would have to say about Trump. “I honestly feel that 36 would put his arm around 45 and earnestly wish him success,” Cranston said. “And he would also whisper in his ear something he said often, as a form of encouragement and a cautionary tale: ‘Just don’t piss in the soup that all of us got to eat.’”
