    What’s beautiful about this clip that I’m now realizing years later after rewatching a million times…is she’s pointing to Denzel Washington. Denzel also took home Best Male Actor that night; first time in history that two Black Actors won in their respective leading category. It’s almost as if they were the only two in the room… acknowledging the historical moment, sacrifices, and struggles they’ve endured to get there. And for a moment they weep.

    This is certainly one of the most triumphant moments in the history of the Oscar’s. Her acceptance speech was so emotional, unplanned/not rehearsed and natural. It was a long time coming for black women. Well done Queen Halle. Watching this clip 22 years later and seeing how far ‘we’ have come in breaking barriers, I cried all over again.

    Even tho ppl were predicting Halle would win, she didn't give herself much of a chance.
    Sissy Spacek had won all the precursor awards until SAG award when Halle pulled out a win.
    And Nicole was coming on strong during the last week or two of Oscar voting according to anonymous Academy voters.
    Halle is nothing but Pure Raw Emotions here but she composes herself to tick off important ppl in her speech.
    Look how Nicole and Renee are visibly moved by Halle's raw emotions.
    In a way many moviegoers are still waiting for Halle to find another project as strong as Monsters Ball cuz it just hasn't happened

    I saw her in this lil seen movie called "Losing Isaiah" in 1995? acting alongside Jessica Lange, and Lange is no slouch in the acting dept, but Halle holds her own in every scene that really blew my mind she was capable of pulling off a performance like that.

There have only been three black females to win acting Oscars in 81 years, and the first two to win, McDaniel and Whoopi Goldberg were both for supporting roles. Anyway, Hattie, in her emotional speech said that she hoped that she'd be "a credit to her race."

    I wish it was an Oscar for Dorothy Dandridge. I thought Halle was too worthy to do Monsters Ball & even too pretty to be just another bond girl. The woman is a gentle diamond (Im straight). Anyhow I am happy for her winnings & she is very bold to cry like that for the world to see.
    I'll also agree with others about Angela Basset & Laurence Fishburne not getting an Oscar for what's love got to do with it. But I am not going to take it out on Halle.
    God Bless all.

    I Love Halle Berry ever since that Queen Mini series. I didn't like her in X-men 1, but she grew on the sequels. Long Live Storm.

    Angela Basset should've won an Osacr for playing Tina Turner. Period. They can say whatever they like but Black people know, Angela Basset is the Best Black actress in the past 100 years. She played Tina Turner, ,Ms Jackson,Voletta Wallace, Stella, and I don't even remember any nude scenes, just very believable roles.Things a black father can show his daughter.

    You obviously don't realize the power of the moment that comes from knowing the degrading history we've experienced or the sustaining legacy of those who overcome (so many I thought of as she mentioned those she could remember): Fredi Washington, Ethel Waters, Ethel Meyer, Beah Richards, Abbey Lincoln, Juanita Hall, Diane Sands...so many WONDERFUL actresses from even CLASSIC films, unrecognized...! ):(( I cried with her.

    @ 2:48-2:49 she got so caught up in the emotion she forgot it's "fought every fight," not "fought every fought"
