This is Us also won Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series.
Backstage the actor shared his thoughts on the #MeToo and #TimesUp movement:
“For me, it has been a wonderful opportunity to take stock that I actually have privilege — that I have male privilege and recognizing that I take a lot of things for granted,” he said.
He continued, “It’s always the responsibility of the minority to understand how to negotiate the majority’s world – black people have to know how to live in a white world. Gay people have to know how to live in a straight world. Women have to know how to live in a man’s world.”

Sterling K. Brown and his wife, actress Ryan Michelle Bathe are one of our favorite couples on and off the carpet.
