Even though we were rooting for Wakanda at the 76th annual Golden Globes on Sunday night, Black Panther didn’t take home any awards.
The film directed by Ryan Coogler was nominated for Best Motion Picture (Drama) and Best Original Score but lost in both categories.
Spike Lee‘s BlacKkKlansman was nominated in four categories (including best Picture Drama) , but failed to take home any trophies. Lee was nominated for Best Director and the film’s star, John David Washington, was up for Best Actor (Drama).

While we’re bummed that neither of those flicks took home any awards, there were still a few moments to celebrate big wins for Black actors.
Regina King won Best Supporting Actress (Drama) for her role in If Beale Street Could Talk and for a few moments, all was right in the world as she applauded Barry Jenkins and pledged to hire way more women for all of her future projects during her touching acceptance speech.
Mahershala Ali won Best Supporting Actor (Comedy or Musical) for his portrayal of Dr. Don Shirley in Green Book. The film also won Best Motion Picture (Comedy or Musical) and Best Screenplay.
