The second trailer for 'Black Is King' is out now.
"Thank you so much for this beautiful honor. I want to dedicate this award to all of my brothers out there, all of my sisters out there inspiring me [by] marching and fighting for change. Your voices are being heard and you're proving to our ancestors that their struggles were not in vain," she began.
Later, she delivered a call-to-action for everyone to do their civic duty and vote. "Now, we have one more thing we need to do to walk in our true power, and that is to vote. I'm encouraging you to continue to take action, continue to change and dismantle a racist and unequal system.
Her award came on the heels of something else exciting: the announcement of a new project that she wrote, directed, and executive produced for Disney Plus.
, Beyoncé described her motivations for the long-gestating project, expressing particular excitement about her ability to release it right now, in the midst of a cultural reckoning about how Black people have been treated in America. "I wanted to present elements of Black history and African tradition, with a modern twist and a universal message, and what it truly means to find your self-identity and build a legacy," she described in an uncharacteristically long caption. "I spent a lot of time exploring and absorbing the lessons of past generations and the rich history of different African customs.
