This year’s Golden Globes Awards stood for something greater than the usual “who are you wearing?” talk. For the first time in history, an awards show addressed Hollywood’s rampant sexual harassment and assault problem. Celebrities wore black dresses and TimesUp pins in solidarity against the injustices long-suffered by women and POC in the industry.
It was awesome. And at times funny. And at times hella awkward.
