The real Korey Wise's applause in the audience bro that's WHOLESOME, Jharrel and Korey are adorable, no one other than Jharrel deserved the Emmy anymore than this.

Korey Wise’s reaction is incredible. He’s in tears. Jharrel spoke his story

[happypandas]

I've never felt so happy for someone winning

[ozybeastias]

When you beat out three Oscar winners, you are going places.

[KendoAlexander]

Angela’s face when she read the result warms my heart so much.

[suzieq]

So well deserved! His performance made me cry.

[findfefito]

the crowd reaction to his win says EVERYTHING. angela basset was so happy for him, all the black actors in the crowd was so proud. this man need to be in movies directed by acclaimed people like nolan, tarantino, greta gerwig, so he can won an oscar too.

[PrivateRye]

He acted his ass off and made you feel that boys pain. Well deserved. I'm late b/c missed the awards.

[scottrobinson]

To be honest when they see us should have won more awards tho

[peteradaniel]

Why am I in tears? It’s such a beautiful moment. His episode was absolutely astonishing. What a force of talent.

[codyhiginbotham]

A very well deserved win. When They See Us had fantastic performances

[irelandevr]

Was great to see him acknowledge the exonerated 5. He deserved this award.

[abigaillopez]

I don't think I can be happier about this, he's a rising star. He earned it.

[manuginobilisbaldspot]

I don't why people were so surprised in hindsight. He was FANTASTIC in his limited role in Moonlight, which is one of the 3-4 best movies of this entire decade. His range is off the charts. It's not about ability, but opportunity. Well earned, well deserved, well done.

[belindaonya]

Black people we are everything and more!! The way we celebrate eachother is unmatched

[thekendalshow]

I just finished when they see us. Jharrel deserved every piece of that Emmy.

[danielmoreno]
