Sterling K. Brown is the first African-American to win Best Actor at the 2018 SAG Awards

Sterling K. Brown took home the award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series at the 2018 SAG Awards on Sunday night, making him the first African-American actor to win in the category.


"People call us weird and strange; the truth of the matter is everybody’s weird and strange, and we just embrace ourselves for who we are," The 'This Is Us' star said in his acceptance speech. "I love actors so much, I decided to marry one. Ryan Michelle Bathe, you’re the best scene partner a brother has ever had. To my glorious cast of This Is Us, you feed me day in day out. You raise the bar."

"To my white family, which thankfully is nothing like the family from Get Out, I love you. To my TV wife Susan Kelechi Watson, let’s keep on repping for the people. To the two young actors that play Randall, to Lonnie (Chavis) and Niles (Fitch), thank you for making the work so easy and so seamless."
