Congratulations to John Legend and Common as they take home the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Song tonight for their song “Glory,” which appeared in the movie Selma, beating out Lorde, Lana Del Rey, Patti Smith, and Sia.
The award presented by Prince, was followed by Common and John Legend‘s truly inspiring acceptance speech, which you can watch below, is one in which they pay tribute to all the unarmed black teens killed by cops as well as those murdered cops in New York.
“When I first stepped on the set I began to think that Selma was bigger than a movie, it has awakened my humanity,” Common expressed.
