Just in this room, we have over twenty Emmy nominees from across the Asian, Indigenous, Black, Latinx, and LGBTQ+ communities.”
Stacey Walker King (The Next Black Millionaires), the Chief Brand Officer of Macro, stated,, “there was a time not too long ago we couldn’t build a room like this for a celebration because it didn’t exist. For anyone who played a part in that, we should be clapping for yourselves.”
