Tracee Ellis Ross took home best actress in a comedy or musical TV series for “Black-ish,” and used that platform to make an important statement.
Taking the stage to accept her award early in the ceremony, Ross dedicated the honor to women of color.
Ross is the first black woman to win in the category since Debbie Allen took the trophy for “Fame” in 1982. She is also the first black nominee in the field since Allen and Nell Carter of “Gimme a Break” were nommed in 1984.
