While receiving the award, the actress paid tribute to the late Toni Morrison, by quoting his words. She said;

“It’s not easy because the past is circuitous, and it has many unexpected detours, but by the grace of God I stand here. I stand here grateful, grateful to the Hollywood Foreign Press for giving me this honor, along with Wakanda Forever.
“My mother always said, good things come to those who pray. I see the truth of that every day as we welcome each new day as a family,” Angela Bassett said.
In an interview with Christian Post, the award winning actress spoke about her faith and the impact it made in her career. She said;
“I rely on the Scriptures when facing challenges in my line of work.
“For all things work together for good, for those who have the Lord and are called according to His purpose.
“So I have foundations and He is my rock I keep going back to.”
Bassett honored and appreciated her Wakanda Forever costars while she paid tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman, who starred in the first film, before his death in August 2020 after battling with colon cancer.
“To my Marvel Disney family, Ryan Coogler, Victoria Alonzo and Nate Moore, the cast and the crew, weeping may come in the evening, but joy comes in the morning,” Bassett said.
“We embarked on this journey together with love, we mourned, we loved, we healed, and we were surrounded each and every day by the light and the spirit of Chadwick Boseman.”
