There was no context for this before....to be an openly gay black man nominated for a leading actor drama #EmmyAward - it just didn't happen. And now, I'm living the truth that it can be possible. It's incredible to be recognized for the work. And then it goes much deeper. It's about representation. It's about all people's stories being told. It's about the art. We, creative people, have the power to transform hearts and minds doing the work that we do and I am just thrilled to be able to do that," he wrote.( With inputs from ANI )
