The red carpet was flooded with black gowns and suits Sunday night at the 75th Golden Globes ceremony in Los Angeles. Actors, activists and others chose to make a color-coordinated statement of female empowerment. Sunday’s ceremony was the first major awards celebration since the anti-sexual harassment movement and the Me Too campaign exploded last October. Oprah Winfrey described the night’s feel in her speech to accept the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement. She is the first black woman to receive the award. For too long women have not been heard or believed if they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men. But their time is up. Their time is up! Winfrey’s speech received a loud, ongoing standing ovation.
