Most people use an awards acceptance speech to deliver pleasant yet dull platitudes, thanking their parents and their agent, and so on. Not Doechii, who triumphed at last night’s BET Awards with a win for Best Female Hip-Hop artist and delivered an acceptance speech for the ages
The BET Awards were held at Los Angeles’ Peacock Theater, a short distance from where Trump’s troops have been battling anti-ICE protestors infuriated at government agents snatching their friends, family, and co-workers from their homes, workplaces, and churches. Many at the ceremony were doing their best to pretend none of that was happening. Not Doechii.
