## Transcript

We would like to introduce you to our newest HFPA member a North Korean army general Cho Yung Cha [ LAUGH ] When Margaret's Cho's did a Golden Globes performance for me it's like she' a pioneer. She's kind of earned a pass to work her way through things and try different things. I don't think Margaret has bad intentions at all. And you know what, I've been an actor for a long time, but I don't really ever do that big of stuff. Usually I'm the person who hands the white person a file and go, you ain't gon' like this. [ LAUGH ] You know, there's always that person of color character? [ INAUDIBLE ] Sometimes when you let people of another background write the jokes for you or fit you, retrofit you into a joke that they're telling, like, of course you're going to be marginalized.

And your voice will be compromised. Margaret, we don't want you to take this the wrong way but could you be a little bit more oh, I don't know, Chinese? I try not to allow that to happen to me. I'm sure at some point in my career it's gonna happen to me. But with Margaret especially. Don't tell me to be mad. I'm not mad at Margaret. I'm not mad at Margaret because if you look at the scope of everything she's done, you know her heart's in a good place. And yeah those are things I feel like the community can work out for itself. Its really weird when dominant culture comes to tell you what to be mad about.
