Michaela Coel makes history as the first Black woman to win at the #Emmys for limited series writing. It is her first Emmy win, for “I May Destroy You. In 2017, Michaela Coel turned down Netflix’s $1 million offer for “I May Destroy You” because they wouldn’t allow her to retain any percentage of the copyright. Tonight, she won an Emmy for Best Writing (Limited Series).
