"I want to say to myself in front of all you beautiful people, ‘Go, girl, with your bad self. You did that.’ Finally, I accept this award on behalf of every Black and Brown woman who have gone unheard, yet overpoliced, like Glenda Cleveland, like Sandra Bland, like Breonna Taylor!" Nash continued.

"I believed in me, and sometimes people don't believe in themselves," the former Clean House host noted. "I hope my speech was a delicious invitation for people to do just that — believe in yourself and congratulate yourself. … Sometimes you've got to encourage what? Yourself. That's why it's not called mama-esteem, them-esteem, us-esteem. It's called self-esteem because nobody got to believe it but you."
