Two Black women, Juan de Sikes and Regina Hall, co-hosted along with Amy Schumer.

We saw young HBCU students handing out the trophies to winners and the show itself was

produced by director Will Packer, who is Black and an HBCU grad himself, who also hired

an all-black production team for the event.
