President Donald Trump is back at the White House, so politics are back at awards shows.

“This is not the time to shut down the diversity of voices,” she said. “We’ve seen, on this stage, talented, hardworking people, from different backgrounds, with different points of view, and it changes the game. DEI is not a threat. It’s a gift. And the more voices, the more powerful the sound.”
