Very very well deserved!!!! Nowwwwww let's get this girlfriends reboot Poppin!

[@christopherlewis7115]

I love how she is so thankful to everyone she mentioned. Congrats to you, Tracee.

[@curtistisdale7861]

Tracee said all she needed to say without taking a breath....She is representing Black Excellence 24/7...I have always been a fan but just realized how Amazingly humble and Beautiful she is....

[@biokomalabo9468]

How easy is to represent black excellence when your mummy is a legendary Motown singer, you are biracial and your dad is a rich music producer. I am sure every black american girl will feel related to her!

[@curtistisdale7861]

@@biokomalabo9468 , Blackish is a great show and when the show or it's performances is nominated elsewhere (Globes, Emmys and SA), that is all it is, a nomination...Tracee was one of the stars of "Girlfriends" and that was another great show that didn't even see or get recognition...Tracee's comes from Entertainment Royalty but blazed her own path and own trail...Black Women must be celebrated....

[@biokomalabo9468]

@@curtistisdale7861 She's done well, hasn't she? I am afraid the 3 facts I stated before are the reason of it. She is NOT a black woman. She might go all black because it suits her, at the end of the day, she was never going to play Rachel in Friends!

[@curtistisdale7861]

@@biokomalabo9468, the one thing with being Biracial is just that you have two races that you belong to. I have never heard Tracee ever talk about nothing but being a Black Woman... Halle Berry, Alicia Keys, and Mariah Carey for starters are always consider and referred to as Black Women and yet they are biracial...What to You makes Tracee any different?!?! Halle Berry is The Only Black Woman to win An Academy Award...Yet she is Biracial?!?!?

[@baibeej6391]

@@biokomalabo9468 dont you know according to society, one drop of black blood makes you black?

[@jonathancineus6424]

This was a legendary, timeless and extremely necessary speech. There are times when the wrap-up music should not ever come on to cut such an incredible moment.

[@Truthandconsciousness]

Yes queen.👑! Honor our elders and ancestors - those who have paved a way giving forth light in abundance. Shinning like a star, you are. 💗

[@reneedillard7511]

Yasssss Congratulations Traci

[@lucyinthesky4682]

It's just like Tracee to bring up the legacies of others. Not one to shine a light just on herself. And she's so empowering to a whole new generation of girls.

[@kimknowles5109]

Love me some TRACEEEEEE

[@mukunimulundika5359]

Uhmmmmm.... NAACP, this is a platform to get important things said, the cutoff music thing isn't cool...

Well deserved Tracee ! Congratulations ❤❤❤❤

[@tianrichards]

She talking about Black women being silenced, and what they do lol. Try to silence her

[@RadiantRuby]

Tian Richards That’s exactly what Is as going to say when I heard that music starting to play!!!

Rihanna got 3 min.

[@ElleBrOw]

🗣🎤 Make Mama proud Tracee 💋

[@fabiola13]

I like that she mentioned the fact that we are often taught we need a man to speak for us or a son to continue our legacy. Guess what? We can create our own legacy and many women specially African American and Hispanic have done it dispute the lack of support and opportunities.

[@kamaramikel8607]

[@tashamcafee6455]

So we cutting the music on our own!... 🤦🏾‍♀️ This is for us!...when other award shows don’t give us our time to speak, but you want to do the same thing! Really BET and NAACP. Nobody shouldn’t have to rush... they are not even standing up there for a whole min!

[@Jouetsenjeu]

Tasha McAfee they have to have time to let everyone be on camera. It still has to fit within the network scheduled time.

[@antwun.l.barbary3231]

Yes. Ok. Look. Good

[@ItzMiszKelliBabyy]

[@butdidyouknow1]

Alright, so... I guess the number 1 takeaway from this year's show is that it needs to be longer LOL But at the same time I can appreciate how serious they were about keeping the time and making sure there's structure. It's just that the image awards just happens to be one of those award shows where speeches about social justice reform are front and center. It takes a lot longer to stand up for equality than to thank you manager at the grammy's. But it's okay, we'll figure it out with time.

[@clarkclarke]

WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH THE MUSIC????? DAMN!

[@beverlyboo9075]

Who did her makeup...

[@samthesham5294]

Tracee reminded me at the end of her Stubborn mom Diana refused to Leave the stage LOL its Thundering, Lightning and Raining Ms Ross you have to Leave the Stage! Ms Ross l ain't Leaving the stage until l finish my Songs! Ms Ross you have to Leave the Stage your Time is up Dont you hear the music? Ms Ross: l do But l am Not Finished with My Speech..l am honored to be in the presence off Jill Scott..etc. The Ross really came out in Tracee.😁🤭
