Donald Glover Just Became the First Black Person to Do This at the Emmys

Donald Glover took home the Emmy for outstanding directing in a comedy series for Atlanta on Sunday night. While the honor is a huge feat in itself, what you may not realize is that Donald just made history by becoming the first black person to win in that category.

During his speech, Donald gave his family and director Hiro Murai a sweet shout-out, saying, "This really belongs to Hiro Murai. He taught me everything about directing. He had the eye for this show and he's just amazing. I really want to give this to Hiro and just say, 'I love you and thank you for being my best friend.'"

Later on in the night, Donald also took home the trophy for outstanding lead actor in a comedy series for Atlanta, and in addition to thanking his family, he also revealed that he and his partner, Michelle, are expecting their second child together. "I want to thank my unborn son, who's listening to Stevie tonight." Donald and Michelle are already parents to a son named Legend, who they welcomed in 2016.
