We already know Alex Borstein deserves all the accolades for her role as as Susie Myerson on Amazon's The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel [1], but damn do her Emmys speeches deserve their own wins.
The actress won outstanding supporting actress in a comedy series [2] for the second year in a row, and though she started off by joking about upsetting viewers with her braless appearance at last year's Emmys [3], she wrapped up her speech with a rousing call for action.
The Emmy winner dedicated her award to "the strength of a woman," thanking show creator Amy Sherman-Palladino, as well as the other women on the Mrs. Maisel cast before she went on to thanking her mother and her grandmother. "My grandmother was in line to be shot into a pit and she turned to a guard and said, "What happens if I step out of line?" He said, "I don't have the heart to shoot you, but someone will." she revealed. "For that I am here and my children are here. So step out of line, ladies. Step out of line."
Watch her speech ahead, and then check out the rest of the night's winners [5].
